How does BB stack up against the wire?? Similar with the world surrounding the drug culture, or am I way off?

The Wire is the best TV series I've ever seen too. I remember watching the first episode thinking to myself why should I care anything about the denizens of inner city Baltimore housing projects?
Within two months I finished all 5 seasons of the Wire completely immersed.
Breaking Bad doesn't have quite the same level of all encompassing social commentary, but it is just as addictive in another way and I started out watching it with an identical question to myself, why should I care anything about the motives and reasons of the crystal meth culture?
Because it's the places I don't go that usually effect me much more than I readily understand.
Breaking Bad is not quite as believable as the Wire but equal, maybe even more intense than the Wire.
