I am most certainly not part of the problem. I have spent countless hours reporting stuff to 311 and getting issues resolved related to illegal dumping and other violations that make the city look like crap. I simply said these generic statements about the whole city being dirty are BS.
A lot of the worst areas are adjacent to property owned by railroads- that is a major issue.

The dense rowhouse neighborhoods outside of Center City and well as the highways/on ramps/off ramps are uniformly dirty if not dirtier than they should be...even the wealthier ones. I would not include West Philly, NW Philly, the Far Northeast, or Packer Park in that summary. Everything else, yes. Basically river to river, 76 north to South Street. Then from Vine all the way to probably Old York Road.
