L I V E B A LT I M O R E 2 0 21 R E P O R T
DEAR READER, Home has always been where our heart is. But where our office is, our kids’ classroom is, our everything is? Well, that was different. The 2021 fiscal year (which began July 1, 2020, and ended June 30, 2021) had us viewing where we live in totally new ways. Throughout Baltimore, neighbors became lifelines as communities looked inward for assistance, information, and much-needed connection.
This report is a celebration of how our community—of eight full-time staff, 20-plus board members, hundreds of friends and supporters, and thousands of customers—came together to make FY21 one of Live Baltimore’s most successful years to date. We never imagined that a year without in-person events would shatter past workshop and Trolley Tour attendance numbers. We couldn’t have guessed, at a time of financial uncertainty for so many, that a record sum of individual donors would choose our mission to support. We wouldn’t have predicted that we’d end the year in a positive financial position (thanks in no small part to our partners at Howard Bank and the State of Maryland) despite a cancelled annual fundraiser.
More than any other fiscal year, FY21 reminded us just how important home can be. We reflected on this as we developed (also from home) an all-new, five-year strategic plan and dreamed of returning to face-to-face events and our own Charles Street Home Center. As we look at all we achieved in FY21, we extend special gratitude to the Live Baltimore staff. Amidst your own personal adversity, you made magic happen for our city. Thank you for living our values of being helpful, collaborating, getting results, staying positive, and, above all, loving Baltimore more than ever during the pandemic. Live Baltimore’s intended impact is to grow Baltimore City’s population, by assisting current and prospective residents and by celebrating Baltimore as a great place to live, in order to create and sustain an equitable and thriving local economy. If you are reading this report, you make progress toward these outcomes possible. We hope to again earn your support as we begin implementing our newly minted FY22–FY26 Strategic Plan in 2022. Here’s to seeing each other (not on a screen!) on July 29, 2022, for Baltimore’s Birthday Bash, if not before!
With Gratitude,
And yet we did. We did all of this while creatively generating civic pride, executing groundbreaking research initiatives, keeping up with a booming housing market, and helping thousands of buyers and renters find a home in Baltimore City.

“My partner and I love Baltimore. We also believe that buying here and staying here means we invest in everything else (schools, transportation, etc.) to help this city grow.” “I lived in DC for five years, but it became too expensive, and I didn’t have a shot at buying a home there. I got a new job outside Baltimore and moved here with the intention of buying a home in the city after renting for the first year—which I did.” “I love that my neighborhood is mostly quiet and that my neighbors are very friendly. I also appreciate being centrally located near the places I frequent the most.”
“We wanted to buy in a neighborhood that we’d want to be in for a while. The prices are right and there are some absolutely incredible homes. We love that our house is 100 years old!”
“I may work in Anne Arundel County, but I love the community of Baltimore. As long as I work in Maryland, I don’t see myself leaving this city.”
“My neighborhood is accessible to public transportation, food, and the people in it are homeowners who have lived here for years.”
“The best things about my neighborhood: it’s historic, majority-Black, and has nice spacious homes.” 9

RESEARCH COVID couldn’t stop us from completing groundbreaking research in FY21—including the largest survey of Baltimore City homebuyers ever conducted.
An Analysis of E X E C U City’s TIVE SUMMARY Baltimore Residential Market Potential
POTENTIAL GROWTH IN THE BALTIMORE RESIDENTIAL MARKET
DECEMBER 2020
KEY FINDINGS
Previous sections of this report looked at the households that could potentially move into homes in Baltimore and the type of homes they would want. This section takes that analysis one step further to consider a
SIZE OF THE POTENTIAL MARKET
key question: How many new or renovated homes are needed to help capture this potential market? Based on the market analysis, Baltimore City can attract annually between 5,300 and 7,100 households to lease or buy new or renovated homes. At the low end of the estimate, that equals 26,500 households occupying new or renovated homes, if made available, over the next five years.
In examining the potential residential market for Baltimore City, the analysis finds that 44,335 households could potentially move into existing and new housing units in Baltimore each year. GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION
NEW OR RENOVATED HOMES: PROJECTED 5-YEAR ABSORPTION IN BALTIMORE BY HOUSING TYPE
Based on historic migration data, Baltimore City draws residents from four areas: •

The vast majority of households that could potentially move into homes in the City are local—residents of Baltimore or three nearby counties.

Importantly, a full 58 percent of the households comprising the potential residential market already live in the City.
It’s important to note that the potential residential market is made up of households of all incomes, resulting in wide rent and purchase price ranges. For some households, varying degrees of financial support or subsidies for housing would be required to support their rental or purchase.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ANALYSIS OF RESIDENIAL MARKET POTENTIAL With support from the Mayor’s Office and the Baltimore City Departments of Housing and Community Development and Planning, we finalized, released, and promoted a landmark analysis of the City’s residential market potential. According to our nationally renowned research firm, Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc. up to 7,100 additional homes could be occupied annually in Baltimore City, if constructed over the next five years.

Results showed that homebuyers chose Baltimore primarily because they “just like the City,” because they work in the City, and/or because they have friends and family nearby. Findings are informing future communication strategies and influencing the development of further research. Comments on the left are from respondents. L I V E B A LT I M O R E . C O M

PROGRAMS Despite the ongoing pandemic, Live Baltimore produced its full schedule of regular programming in FY21.
In addition to 23 virtual homebuying workshops, which educated 1,151 individuals throughout the year, three all-virtual Trolley Tours introduced home-bound homebuyers to dozens of City neighborhoods.
In total, 1,642 participants met with exhibitors in virtual booths, tuned into live and prerecorded classes, and navigated self-paced online tours featuring still images, rich video, and community information. Virtual events were so popular that overall attendance for the year increased 40% over FY20.
Families with children were served by virtual events as well (including our annual Charter Waitlist program), while a new digital marketing campaign was launched to grab their attention.

CIVIC PRIDE Celebrating city life is mission-critical to Live Baltimore. With residents largely on lockdown, especially in fall and winter, we took civic pride to the streets in FY21.
WINDOW SIGNS In November and December we delivered more than 180 custom-designed, Baltimore-themed window signs to 136 individuals in 54 communities. Although originally planned as only a holiday promotion, these literal “signs of life” amid the pandemic continued to be requested and distributed through spring.
SALT-BOX Getting in on the hottest public art trend of 2021, Live Baltimore commissioned Juliet Ames to place our very own salt-box send-up on the corner of Charles and Mulberry Streets (right next to our office) at the start of January.
VALENTINE’S TRUCK In February we showed love to the City by collecting Valentine’s messages and broadcasting them on an LED billboard truck that traversed every corner of Baltimore over eight hours. This “Share the love, Baltimore!” campaign received 115 submissions from supporters in approximately 50 neighborhoods—including multiple elected officials, Mayor Brandon Scott, and even Mr. Trashwheel! The truck’s progress was chronicled on social media and the entire effort received coverage, which aired multiple times, from WBAL-TV11.

FY21 OPERATIONS Live Baltimore is a private nonprofit organization—not a city agency. The City of Baltimore provides only a portion of our current funding. Although other Baltimore promotional agencies have dedicated sources of income, such as the hotel tax, Live Baltimore must apply to foundations for grants, seek marketing partners, and solicit like-minded individuals and corporations for contributions. The following reflects audited financial statements.

BIRTHDAY BASH 2020
WATCH A RECAP
“The party must go on!” This was our motto as we approached Baltimore City’s 291st birthday during a global pandemic. Although the event looked quite different in July of 2020, the familiar spirit of joy and neighborliness was unmistakably the same. Virtual partygoers received birthday hats and celebration packs by mail before tuning in for an evening of online surprises. Familiar faces, such as WBAL’s Jason Newton, the Oriole Bird, DJ Impulse, and other local celebrities popped on screen to join in the fun. The following day, community partners helped the Live Baltimore team deliver 500 cupcakes and happy birthday wishes to residents across the City.
