Irvington (Baltimore) is a neighborhood in the Southwest District of Baltimore, located between Yale Heights neighborhood to the west and the Gwynns Falls neighborhood to the east.〔See List of Baltimore neighborhoods〕 Oldtimers used to call it "Skulltown," a moniker bestowed due to its three sprawling cemeteries. Loudon Park, Mount Olivet and New Cathedral cemeteries still dominate the landscape of this Southwest Baltimore nook. More than 50 percent of the homes in Irvington were built before 1950. Its population in 2008 was estimated at 4,548.〔 The community's boundary with the Gwynns Falls neighborhood is drawn by Caton Avenue and the MARC Penn Line.
