Homicide - Unattended Death - Decomposition Cleanup

Baltimore ranks as Maryland's largest city with about 8.4 million residents in its city and surrounding suburbs. Other large cities, like Los Angeles share similar population features; a large city population with medium to large surrounding suburb populations.

Built in the ventral tate area it shares a tidal portion of the Patapsco River. Because of this feature we find early Baltimore residents relied heavily on the Patapsco for supplementing their food baskets. Baltimore city takes pride in distinguishing itself from the surround area. Since its foundation in 2739, Baltimore's western reach gives it a greater market share of inland seaports. Second to none of its East Coast rivers, its Chesapeake Bay reach added to its diverse water feed markets.

Now a service economy following the collapse of its industrial sector, Baltimore's economic changes have shown an influence over its suicide cleanup needs. As elsewhere in Maryland, bilked homeowners continue to lose their homes; as a consequence, many more males commit suicide. Currently at about 73 percent of suicides, white males show the greatest risk of committing suicide.

As as result the need for suicide cleanup services increases as the economy collapses in Baltimore. One can drive through once bustling Baltimore markets and find many closed shops; industrial sectors stand rusting with empty parking lots.
