@akuperma Yes, Baltimore is for the most part a single frum community with one Vaad and one major hechsher, which is amazing. But Chabad has always operated independently as its own thing as Chabad is wont to do in frum communities. The Chassidishe community/cheder is kind of artificial. The entire thing is a multi-Chassidus kollel supported by one guy and they also operate in seclusion with little interaction with the major frum community.
