Cheese-steaks and The Liberty Bell
With Camden NJ, technically a suburb of Philly being named consistently one
of the most dangerous places to ive in these United States, Philadelphia
proper is not far behind.
It has been in the top 20 most dangerous and least
liveable places for the last several years, peaking at Number 4 on the “Most
Dangerous” list.
By contrast similar North East cities like New York came
in Number 4 on the Safest City List. Last year Philly had it highest murder
rate in the last 10 years with over 400. Gang violence and organized crime
is widespread in Philly, as is poverty, and unemployment.
The weather pretty
much sucks too – but you can get great cheesesteaks and pretzels.
