21226 has newer housing than most of the Baltimore area: 56% of its 2,990 homes were built in 1980 or later.
Homes built since 1980 rely on copper, PEX, CPVC and PVC. These resist corrosion, so emergencies come from failed fittings, split appliance hoses and pipes that freeze in garages and crawl spaces. The repairs to expect most in 21226: failed fittings and supply hoses, frozen pipes and burst supply pipes.
59% of homes here are rowhouses or townhouses. Most row homes take the water line straight in through the front of the basement, and a leak soaks the shared wall with the neighbors as quickly as it soaks your own floor.

Market figures, not a quote.
In a Baltimore rowhouse, the main shut-off valve is usually on the basement wall facing the street, where the water line comes in from the meter at the curb. The meter and valves in the curb vault are City equipment; call 311 when the water has to be shut off there.
The property owner is responsible for the service line from the water meter into the house; the Baltimore City Department of Public Works maintains the outdoor lines up to and including the meter. Report water running in the street, a leaking hydrant or a main break to Baltimore City 311 (call 311 or use the 311 app). A leak between the meter and your foundation, or anywhere inside, is a job for a plumber.
ZIP 21226 crosses a jurisdiction line: 50% of its land is in Baltimore City and 50% of its land is in Anne Arundel County. The jurisdiction printed on your property tax bill tells you which utility number to call.
