[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Philly has phenomenal food. DC has fancy overpriced restaurants with mediocre food.

Philly is a great sports town. DC, not so much.

DC wins in jobs and economy hands down but you have high COL to go with it.

Philly has a soul. Sometimes it’s mean and dirty but it’s real and has character and this is evident in many neighborhoods. Name me a single DC neighborhood with soul.

DC people tend to be cold and elitist (whether it be education, job, and/or wealth). Philly people can be rough around the edges but the elitism is absent. I would also consider the people in Philly cold/aloof.

Philly is more accessible to regular people. DC caters more to the educated and wealthy.

City neighborhoods in DC are significantly greener and less dense. I’d prefer walking around in DC compared to Philly.

DC people think of Philly as lesser. Philly people don’t think about DC (they sit in the shadows on NYC).

The restaurants are phenomenal. The sports are amazing.  Philly has great healthcare too.  Much like a mini-NYC but more affordable.

DD is at Penn for grad school and loves it, including the grit.[/quote]
