I’m not from the Burbs. The assumptions people on this sub throw around are so ridiculous. The amount of times some moron on this sub has accused me of being from wherever because of a comment on parking or cheesesteaks or snow plowing or whatever 😬
Anyway. Long story short.
I spent 6 years in CC before moving to south Philly less than a year ago.
My doctor, chiropractor, vet, pediatrician, etc are all there.
If I were to bring a dog on septa to go to the vet, wouldn’t the folks in this exact sub shit themselves?
If I were to bring my baby on septa, wouldn’t folks on this sub say: Philly crime is the worst. Any idiot with a baby on septa is asking for trouble.
Contrary to popular belief. Philly is a great city and the people are are wonderful. There’s a tiny subset on this sub who REALLY want to uphold the asshole Philly demeanor. Not necessary

Decent question. I actually hate driving. And I hate cars. Whenever possible, I cycle or walk or bus to CC.
That said, we lived in CC for five or six years and recently moved to South Philly. So my dentist, doctor, chiropractor, etc are all in CC.
I work in north Philly, so if I’m doing anything on the way home from work, I end up directly in the nightmare that is parking and trafficking through Rittenhouse square - two activities I wouldn’t wish upon my worst enemy

I had thought the lottery was completely open. Open to anyone. Do you have any links to this info? Is there a centralized site offering info on how standards have changed for the magnet schools ?

I lived in the developing world for several years, where we’d only drink bottled water. Once I went down the mental rabbit hole that it takes to avoid the water entirely (no ice, no coffee or tea or fountain beverages, no pasta or noodles when I’m out, how’d they wash their lettuce, what about brushing my teeth, etc), I had to give up and admit I’d rather drink heavy metals and bacteria than spend this much time worrying. I’m not knocking your choices at all - at this point, we should all be a bit more skeptical of what we consume. From pesticides to hormones to antibiotics, there’s a lot of poison we ingest because it’d take a lot of work not to.

Just read about the shooting. I’m assuming that’s the one. Hopefully they find the piece of shit who murdered a child walking to school.
