Baltimore is officially split into nine regions.
These regions are based on geography.
Each region is patrolled by their own Baltimore Police Department district.
These regions are: Northern, Northwestern, Northeastern, Western, Central, Eastern, Southern, Southwestern, and Southeastern.
Locals sometimes split the city into "East Baltimore" and "West Baltimore" along Charles Street.
Other locals sometimes split the city into "North Baltimore" and "South Baltimore" along Baltimore Street.

The Central district includes Downtown Baltimore, Harborplace, The Camden Yards Sports Complex (Oriole Park at Camden Yards and M&T Bank Stadium), the Convention Center, and the National Aquarium in Baltimore.
