I don't see how that's possible? Plenty of houses in South Philly that would fit your range I'd assume but hey, everyone has different standards

Where you also a pharm tech for CVS? I've had very similar responses from people.

Don't get me wrong, ima be professional and do my job even if you act like a dick, but what a way to try to garner sympathy from someone at work. "bUT Ma moNiEs!"

Ok. I'll accept that. Hopefully that would happen.

The cynwyd line comes a few times a DAY, not a few times per hour.

She may not be buying up all property to rent out, but AirBnB is, and she works for them.

because of the cars you mean? i have to bike through the badlands of north philly almost everyday, twice a day. i'd say i feel more danger from cars than from some sort of random attack or shooting (and i have been doing this commute for 9 years). i would also be more trapped in an El car than on a bike if i was in the proximity of an emerging dangerous situation, and i don't think that would make me feel safer.

Aight that's fair enough but then we're just black pilled with no way to pull out of the tailspin without somehow divesting from municipal government, which almost never happens. I still have hope that if we get people into the city that care about government working and demand something from it, we can turn it around

As a resident of Phoenixville, I'd love to be able to hop on the train to some other towns without a drive.

Too many traffic lights.

Precisely. And Philly is not one of those markets. (Neither are the other large coastal cities and Chicago)

no, no, these atv and dirtbike riding groups are incredibly friendly and they are just kids. who cares if they do incredibly dangerous things that could harm themselves or others? we were all kids once!

Dude used to post up outside my house for over an hour some nights, song playing away. I met the entire neighborhood that way. I miss it, my current block he never comes.

Unbelievable to me. They're a detriment to the city, proven to be corrupt as fuck year-over-year, punish responsible people who need to leave their cars places when they're out drinking or something, take parking away from purely residential areas where they don't belong at all... they're scum. And the people deepthroating this abusive, backwards, harmful organization truly baffle me.

No, I've lived here for 15 years and the city government is corrupt. Everyone knows this. If it weren't then yes, increasing what the city collects would help. But the money won't go where it should to help.

Yeah the people here are just going to yell at someone being a prick. I feel like our rep is mostly from entitled jerks who aren’t used to being told to fuck off.

If building would reduce rent they wouldn't do it. They're doing it because rents are going up anyway.

If they overbuild, they would end up staying the same or going down a little in some markets or segments.

It's almost like i mentioned a tax base and you just went with whatever you decided you read

Fuckin right!
