Morrell Park - Baltimore, MD Area Guide

Niche Reviews Niche logo

The quiet hilltop location of Morrell Park gives locals great views of Baltimore, including the downtown area about four miles to the northeast. Residents choose from a mix of row houses, single-family homes, duplexes, and townhouses for rent. Two green spaces, Morrell Park and DeSoto Park, give locals a place to stretch their legs and connect with nature, and a city recreation center supplies residents with a computer lab, gym, and other recreational facilities. Move easily through the neighborhood on Washington Boulevard for access to the many shops and restaurants. Add No. 1 Taste III to your speed dial for your Chinese fix. When you prefer pasta, head to Italiano's where locals dine-in or carry out pizza, pastas, sandwiches, and more.

Morrell Park has a great sense of community. The area is rough around the edges. But the neighbors look out for each other. There is plenty to do. At least 10 restaurants in walking distances. Access Art and the Rec Center have activities for kids. Plus there are 2 different parks with playgrounds. The churches are very welcoming. The Boulevard is a little dirty sometimes but they clean it regularly. Morrell Park is one of the best places in southwest Baltimore. It's affordable and relatively safe. There are a few offices hiring and the local stores are hiring. UPS and Triwire are 5 minutes away they always have good jobs open.

I don't really have a sense of community. My family is friendly with some people, and that's great, considering being friendly with anyone is kind of rare around here. The majority of people living in Morrell Park were born here and will die here - not because they particularly like it, but because they have nowhere else to go. There are a lot of dogs, but I've only ever seen a handful being walked. I'm not really familiar with this idea of "community events or engagement." I've never experienced these things.
