MarSolo Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I live in West Philly, close to the burbs, and all the people I know in the burbs are AGHAST that I dare venture into Center City because it’s riddled with crime and homelessness. Even people I grew up with by into the right wing myth of cities being violent and scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in Fishtown, of course it's a major city so there's crime, but I've never been mugged, my place has never been broken into, etc. In fact, the city has only gotten nicer and nicer every year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
