Why This Tiny Town Always Shows Up on Your Maps

Why This Tiny Town Always Shows Up on Your Maps

Picture this tiny Aussie town that’s suddenly on everyone’s radar because of something called the “Baltimore Phenomenon.” Basically, it’s this bizarre glitch where mapmakers kept copying a mistake from an old map, labeling this random spot as “Baltimore” instead of its actual name. And bam, just like that, this little town becomes a worldwide sensation, known not for its own charm but for this crazy mix-up. Locals probably get a kick out of it, seeing tourists show up scratching their heads, wondering where all the crab cakes are.
