Reply to comment by DisciplineShot2872 in Is Pennsylvania bad place to live? What do you like about living in this state? by [deleted]

I wouldn’t say Philly people are gruff except when it comes to sports. Generally, people from Philadelphia are friendly and welcoming. The city also has unmatched access to medical care. That’s what keeps me living close by.

Don't get me wrong, I love the people. Seriously the best people I've ever met. What I mean is that there's a lot less of the West Coast/Southwest fake smiles and small talk. But everyone has been genuinely helpful and welcoming. When someone asks me how I'm doing here, they actually mean it rather than it being a hollow pleasantly.

Well put. Philadelphians are very real and I’d say they’re in touch with their emotions on the whole.
