Plus Hagerstown doesn't look that clean or brightly lit.

Edit: for folks that don't live in northwestern Maryland: Hagerstown is a shithole that collects everyone who was recently released from the state penitentiary up there. It's main claim to fame is being a railroad hub, but, as you'd imagine, that has not been the greatest economic boom in the last 50 years. And it's not as convenient as Frederick for being a commuter community down to DC.

Look on the bright side. It's not Cumberland. They've also got a state prison and their main claim to fame was the C&O canal and people setting out on the Oregon trail. I'd say those things are worse economically than being a railroad hub.
