It’s kind of an in-between? Barclay Avenue itself (and eastern roads near Greenmount) south of 25th are sketch. North of 25th is practically CV. Guilford, Calvert, and streets west (south of 25th)… it’s weird, because some of those are classified as CV (like Guilford south of 25th gets the green trash cans and pays like CV does), or Old Goucher. If you’re looking at a specific property (regardless of any location), it’s always best to scout it out during daytime and nighttime.

Yeah, it’s south of 25th. That’s great advice and great insight. Thank you!!

I support the above poster. Those neighborhoods are very mixed, but basically east and south are where it gets sketchier. But it’s really not as simple as all that. Go down during the day, and if it looks nice, go down on a Friday night.

But Barclay st south of 25th for someone who doesn’t know Baltimore is not a great spot. Guilford isn’t too bad. I know several women in that area with mixed reviews of safety

Are you referring to Goucher maybe? If Guilford is in the cards, that would definitely be a step up above Barclay. A couple tax brackets to be exact.

I meant guilford ave, that runs parallel to barclay.

Both are in or close to the Old Goucher neighborhood
