I'm not happy about it, but I'm not a fan of being unemployed, so I'm going to be taking a job in Baltimore. My wife will be staying in Iowa for a while until we figure out what to do with all of our stuff, sell our house, and find her a job. I'll be starting at my new job on November 15. After the Iowa Meet-Up I'll be packing up my toys and heading east.

I don't know the area and I would like to know if there is anyone from there who has any advice about the area. I'm looking for a temporary place to live where I can sleep and work on razors. Other than being in the lab, that's pretty much all I'll be doing so I'm looking for a cheap sh*t-hole as close as practical (within a few miles) to Johns Hopkins on the 700 block of N. Broadway.

Any advice for finding something would be appreciated.
