During a Monday morning press conference on Election Day security, Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner had a message for anyone who planned to try and intimidate voters. "F around and find out," he said repeatedly.
Mr. Krasner seems to care more about elections than innocent victims of murder.

The city has a lot of potential but the 2020s will be hard on philly
I wouldn’t go unless you were an introvert that just worked at sig as a trader and went home and stayed in your mainline town
The city itself is rough rough rough
+1 It's beautiful in many ways; and I love the restaurants, history, and museums. But crime is terrible. Very unsafe there! Police Officer Fitzgerald was callously murdered 2 years ago by a suburban 18 year old from a wealthy family (Miles Pfeffer), and Mr. Pfeffer still hasn't been brought to trial.

Central High for the win.
Everyone mentions main line for the schools but Central High for the win. This public school has only one rival - Masterman (also in the city, also public). Chestnut Hill, Society Hill, Mt Airy - these are halcyon-like neighborhoods and are actually city proper.
+1 on food, museums and quirk; Eastern State Penitentiary, boat house row, morris arboretum, Dalessandro's Steaks. The hits keep coming in Philly.
DC unfortunately is cut with Southern passive aggressive snark. Give me aggressive Philadelphian anytime.
Lower Merion High is for Kobe.

Philly people aren’t clever or curious in the same way locals are in DC and NYC. And that accent is like nails on a chalkboard…
DC is full of strivers and the people you like in NYC are all the drab Manhattanites who might as well be live by in DC.
I grew up in Philadelphia in a neighborhood full of expats, with parents from California. Because of that I am quite aware that I will never be truly Philadelphian in the way most of my friends were: that is, belonging to one of the cultural or social Philadelphia tribes: Irish, Italian, Black, Ukrainian, Wasp, Puerto Rican, Jewish, etc... But I still feel more connected to my childhood city than I ever will to DC.

When I was a junior associate at a DC law firm one of the main partners I worked with was from Northeast Philly. Brilliant guy, ended up going to Stanford, clerking for the Supreme Court, and one of the best litigators in the city. Walked into his office once while he was eating lunch at his desk, and I see him calling 97.5 the Fanatic sports radio going on in detail about all the problems the left side of the Eagles OL was having in their loss to Atlanta on Sunday. Kind of sums up the difference between DC and Philly.

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.
