In short:
1. No concept of township. Everyone lives in communities surrounding the city 2. Extremely wealthy (everyone drives an BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, etc and lives in a monstrous house) 3. Private schools with huge campuses, old mansions and castles for classrooms, and millions of dollars in endowments (schools arguably better than most colleges) 4. Pastel colors such as hot yellow, pink, green, baby blue, in addition to plaid pants and multicolor belts 5. Polo is the only thing to wear (Abercrombie and American Eagle are trashy and fake by real Baltimore standards) 6. Lacrosse is life and the MIAA is the best in the country with lax games drawing hundreds of people and the MIAA championship drawing 1000s 7. Kids could drink from their first days in high school and we are good at driving drunk 8. House or field parties every weekend 9. Its called Beruit not beer pong 10. Preakness and Hunt Cup 11. Ocean City Baltimore Prep Schools include:

Before, describing the world of Baltimore (Baltimore Prep/North Baltimore) it is important to make several key descriptions about the physical and geographical layout of Maryland and more importantly Baltimore City and County. First and foremost, contrary to other parts of the nation the idea of town or township does not exist. In other words, Baltimore County is not broken down into a series of townships each with their own mayor and municipal services. Instead, the area of Baltimore County is broken down into neighborhoods or communities outside and surrounding the city of Baltimore. In addition many of these areas are not separated by vast areas of fields or forests but are actually connected to each other. Baltimore communities can be described as liquid, flowing into each other with no clear distinction. Such distinctions are only made for reasons like providing area codes and rec. councils. In addition no one from these communities say that they are from these areas; everyone says that they are from Baltimore. However, if one Baltimorean is conversing with another Baltimorean about where they live then these area names become applicable. Those who attend private schools are the by-products of the school and of the area they live in.
