  • Is Maryland pedestrian and cyclist-friendly?

    Maryland's pedestrian and cyclist friendliness varies by location. Cities like Baltimore and Annapolis have areas that are walkable, but others require a car.

Don't forget the regional variations of barbecue, which differ from other parts of the country.
