Strategically located in the Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. east coast, Baltimore sits in the center of the enormous Washington/Baltimore Common Market. This inland location makes it the closest Atlantic port to major Midwestern population and manufacturing centers
and a day's reach to 1/3 of U.S. households.
The port provides immediate access to the 6.8 million people in the thriving Washington/Baltimore region, the nation's fourth-largest and
one of the wealthiest consumer markets in the U.S.
The region is also among the country's wealthiest. Maryland has the third highest household income in the nation ($57,424).
Thanks to Maryland's Port of Baltimore's outstanding highway access, trucks
can reach 35% of America's manufacturing base overnight -- and 32% of its population.
Steel manufacturers in Pittsburgh... Furniture makers in North
Carolina... Consumers in Boston. They can ALL be served in less than 24
hours from Maryland's Port of Baltimore.
