Coppin Heights, Baltimore

Coppin Heights/Ash-Co-East is a predominately African-American working-class neighborhood in West Baltimore, Maryland.

[citation needed] Within its boundaries are Carver Vocational-Technical High School and Wilbur H. Waters Park.

This expansion, called "South Campus", has buildings for health care and technology instruction.

[2] Coppin Heights and surrounding communities share many of the same historical problems including vacant properties, low-income families, high unemployment and crime.

This transition offered many African American households in Baltimore their first opportunity for home ownership.
