Sprint coverage in Maryland

How's the current Sprint voice/data coverage around Baltimore MD and College Park MD? I'm thinking of switching our family plan from T-Mobile to Sprint and wondering if any Maryland mefites can provide some idea of Sprint coverage. I don't really trust the Sprint coverage maps but it implies that coverage is pretty good.
My mother is in Baltimore MD, 2 miles east of where Google Maps centers Catonsville. My brother is in College Park MD, less than a mile from the University of Maryland campus.
What kind of Sprint coverage would they have at home? My mother also travels on I-70, sometimes as far west as Hagerstown - what kind of coverage can she expect on her way there and back. I hear Sprint users can roam on Verizon, is this also true in Maryland?

Sprint users can roam on Verizon, although there are some limitations when it comes to data roaming. Voice/texting should be fine.

I had pretty bad luck with Sprint in Baltimore a couple of years ago. Lots of dropped calls and static. I lived in Hampden for most of this time, and almost always had to go outside to have a decent conversation (we were in an end rowhouse). When I got my iphone and switched to AT&T, the service was noticeably better. But this might also be in part because I had a crappy phone. Things also might have improved, since I switched a bit over a year ago.
