Quiet West Baltimore living
No two historic rowhomes are the same in West Baltimore's Madison Park neighborhood. The community—which is made up of just three streets, from Eutaw Place to McCullough Street—is blocks from local green spaces, thriving recreation centers, mom-and-pop shops and eateries and is also served by an active community coalition called Promise Heights. Whether they're taking the nearby subway or walking downtown, residents of this West Baltimore community are likely to be close to work, as well as the city's biggest shows, festivals and games.
Rowhomes for rent or purchase
Though Madison Park is close to many businesses, the neighborhood is primarily residential. Traditional Italianate or Federal rowhomes feature simple red brick facades, ornate brownstone, marble, and granite. Many homes were constructed in the early 19th century with white marble stoops, iron balconies, and ornamental detailing around doors and windows. According to data from Homes.com, most Madison Park residents rent their rowhome units. Those looking to buy a home or a mixed-use residential and retail space to rent out themselves choose from options ranging from $210,000 to $630,000.

Schools for Madison Park students
The Baltimore City Public Schools board plans to close Eutaw Marshburn Elementary School, which is central within the community, at the end of the 2023 school year, along with nearby Steuart Hill Academy and New Era Academy. If the closure passes, students will be zoned for Dorothy I. Height Elementary School, Historic Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Elementary School or Furman Templeton Preparatory Academy. The latter two each earn a C-minus from Niche. From there, they may attend Booker T. Washington Middle School—also earning a C-minus—before finishing at Frederick Douglass High School. Founded in 1883, the high school once taught Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall and earns a C from Niche. Madison Park is also close to the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA), the oldest independent degree-granting college of art and design in the United States, and The University of Baltimore.
Dorothy I. Height Elementary School is a public school serving grades PK-5.
Booker T. Washington Middle School serves students from 6th through the 8th grade.

People will be people and do what they want. For the most part it's safe here but I don't know many people who personally abuse substances so I can't speak on that.

This neighborhood is going through gentrification about 10 years ago it was predominantly African American and blue collar now very diverse and white collar. Most of the residents are professional millennial, young families, and out of state residents. Its an up and coming neighborhood.

The area has beautiful parks and landscaping but it's the city so there isn't too much wild life or plant life all around
