"Dying to Live Here"

Taylor Heights is an unusual community, in that most of its residents are dead. The sprawling Parkwood Cemetary dominates the community landscape, and limits the number of homes available in the area.
Instead, most of the property in Taylor Heights is devoted to commercial endeavors. There are a couple of chain restaurants, as well as a few family owned eateries. Because Baltimore is a seaport town, these places tend to focus on seafood offerings. There are also several bars and nightclub that tend to attract a somewhat rowdy clientele, especially on the weekends.
There are not a lot of chain stores in Taylor Heights. Instead, most of the stores are privately owned specialty shops that cater to those who do not have transportation to shop at the more competitive stores in the suburbs. There are also several hair salons and a small day spa.
The few homes that are available in the community tend to be of poor quality and occupied by people of questionable intents. In other words, because the neighborhood is primarily commercial, those who choose to live there are often interested in less than entirely legal commercial activities. For these reasons, and others, I would not recommend this neighborhood to anyone.
Pros
  • nice, peaceful cemetary
Cons
  • crime and violence
