What is the drug situation in Baltimore?
Question by : What is the drug situation in Baltimore?
I’m writing a story about some kids who travel to Baltimore to sell drugs. What are some areas of Baltimore where drug abuse/marketing is high? What are the statistics when it comes to people who sell? (ex. average ethnicity, age, etc.) What areas have high crime rates? How big is the market for drugs? Any info is greatly appreciated.
PS, If anyone has some need-to-know information about Baltimore (or its surrounding area) in general, not just pertaining to drugs, that would be awesome. Thank you very much.
Cheers,
Braeden
