[quote=Anonymous]I'm one of the several Philadelphia area posters who posted on the last few threads. The thread has definitely taken a weird turn. The ugliness of the DC defenders in shooting down other cities is just plain weird.

In the first place, Philadelphia is not exactly cheap. Housing is more expensive compared to many cities, while cheaper than other cities. Parts of Philadelphia are quite expensive. There are cheaper areas, too. In this sense Philadelphia is normal among American cities. It's a solid city in a solid region with solid prospects. There's been a lot of growth in parts of Philadelphia, both jobs and population, and plenty of development. There are still very deprived areas. Another post pointed out it's not a boom town and that's just fine and dandy with me. It's a normal city with a working class, middle class and upper class and plenty of all three groups. I have a feeling none of the critics have been to Philadelphia.

We like living in Philadelphia. It works for us and offers us a high quality and stimulative life and it does for our friends and neighbors, too. And on top of this we have one of the best urban downtowns in the country. I'm sorry if this somehow bothers you.
