A question about this place:
Why is this place listed as part of Baltimore? --- This airport is way outside of the city.. it’s not like Ronald Reagan airport which is right next to D.C… there’s a LOT of development in Anne Arundel Co going on these days so arriving at BWI puts you i

Good point. I have reported this:

With your knowledge of Maryland geography, you can learn to participate and report such issues.

I reported some time ago that the location was a problem. http://www.43places.com/problems/view/31367
I pointed out the county location, which was of course dismissed. The appropriate location, barring county, would simply be “Maryland,” not Baltimore. If you look at BWI’s web site contact info, the town name is the airport name, ergo it is a town unto itself in Anne Arundel County. The response was that it’s easier for visitors to find it listed this way. Once again, I don’t understand why that is. If you type in the airport name, it will come up. I guess some people will have a surprise finding themselves at a considerable suburban distance from Baltimore City or county. It’s worth another try, and I thank you, but the 43 Places problem-solvers nixed this before.
