The wife and i are thinking of moving to Philadelphia from New York. we are from California and have been in NY for 2 years now but want something else. Good idea? bad idea? why? thanks

Your levels of stress will decrease, and you'll save a ton of money given how much cheaper rent is. More affordable. More open spaces. Better cafe culture. Better beer culture.

One weird thing is how far from the city people commute. A lot of people have a rural life, but commute to center city. It's sprawled out pretty bad. It's also a bit younger as uni kids make up a large portion of people who live in the city.

Seedy areas are a little less predictable than they are in NYC. There are pockets all over the place.

Different person: this interactive map should give you a good idea what to expect.

you should because it's more pleb-friendly and we need fewer unpleasant import tourists like you.

Exactly the mindset i cant stand.
Seems people literally find it impossible to believe people are actually from
Nyc... Just assume everyone came here from somewhere else.
Stay jealous, cucklet

its funny how New Yorkers just cant stop saying they are from New York. The only people who give a fuck are New Yorkers.

umm its like an 1&1/2 from the city. take the train or drive there on the weekend and check it out. Or check it out every weekend for a month. come on.

>>1070391
Yeah I'm planing on doing that too. Just wanted to see if I could get any ideas from people who live there.

I live in NYC and am visiting Philly for the long weekend. I love visiting Philly. I wouldn't want to move here, though.
