No point comparing Philly to NYC… just not worth it and disingenuous to Philadelphia.
You guys want to see a dirty, trash strewn, graffiti laden, poorly maintained city with crumbling sidewalks, parks and infrastructure? Visit Naples, Italy. I’m here now, and if you look past the negatives, it’s an incredible place, but it sure has its problems.
Rome is also dirty and filled with trash and graffiti, and so is Paris.
Look, is Philadelphia perfect? No. But I definitely find if you don’t get out and explore the world, you think everywhere else is better. Philadelphia definitely doesn’t do everything right, and it’s far from perfect, but it really is an incredible city. ESPECIALLY for how underrated it is.
I’m telling you… if Philadelphia could just get crime under control (especially violent crime), watch out. That’s really the biggest thing holding Philadelphia back.
