My city is a cultural wasteland
The aquarium is nice though.
Baltimore may be the butt of jokes for people in N. Virginia. I actually live closer than you. I lived there for years and my son has been living there over 10 years although he is leaving this summer. Nobody denies there are problems but a lot of people also very much enjoy living there. Again, I recommend visiting the r/baltimore subreddit to get a good idea of what's happening and maybe ask questions. Like I said, you'll get some negativity but I still believe the overall experience would be positive. If the OP is not familiar with Reddit I would encourage him to give it a try, there's a lot there in general.
On Google Maps, it appears to have already been replaced with "New Song Fellowship Church". This is the worst fate to have befallen the Landmark. Religious groups have been protesting indie/foreign films since the 1970s. It's going from a place of liberation and free expression, to one that will teach people how to be conformist, establishment-loving, sex-hating buzzkills.

Pfft, I'm not stupid enough to live in NOVA. It's crowded and overpriced. Everyone I knew who moved there felt themselves poorer after the move. I live in the sweet spot in central VA, where income to cost of living is a whole lot more favorable and the area is nice.
Anyway, as far as Baltimore is concerned, it's not a di... sorry, distance measuring contest. The inner harbor district is kind of nice I suppose, for a visitor anyway. It's unlikely you'd live there.

Try to make enough to move to Vancouver, then if you fall short you can still afford Seattle.

I live near Toledo Ohio and it's another place you can add to list. Not so many religious right types, but it's a place that's stuck in the past IMO. Either people think it's the best place since sliced cheese or they hate it, very little gray area. Very little culture and stuck in it's ways. There are certain people who are lifers here, who get made if you say anything negative about the place. One day I will leave, I keep telling myself.
I'm not well traveled but The Pacific NW sounds like a dream, it looks pricey though in terms of housing. Texas sounds like hell to me.

It would take a Cultural Revolution, like the one Mao did in China, to get Texas on par with California and New York (and eventually get the U.S. on par with Sweden).
