Reply to comment by [deleted] in Here’s the real reason the EPA doesn’t want to test for toxins in East Palestine | Stephen Lester by hahahoudini
They are already planning on it and it appears they have a way to get a control by testing nearby soils that wouldn’t be contaminated by the derailment.

> Philly would have an AWB and mag cap limits in a heartbeat if they could.
What percentage of gun crime is committed in Philadelphia with legally owned guns?
I'd be surprised if it's over 0.001%.

I live there. One block from your realtor's "up and coming" is ghetto and guns. Try to find a short sale or foreclosure in the burbs.

West side is always nice. Below around 17th is a lot of businesses getting to a crappier area below 14th (now in center city.) East side is widely inconsistent if it's nice or not you'd have to drive around but I know that's where I apparently some people bought heroin in the 00s.
South side can be nice as well.
Now there's been some gentrification and I've only driven through it since then. Bethlehem is a real nice place too, but there are all sorts of places to live in the valley.

> City of Philadelphia Police have state-wide jurisdiction like the State Police.
I’ve never heard this. Do you have the statute for that?

My job would be in Allentown so within a 40ish minute drive would be nice. I've been seeing some affordable town homes within walking distance so was looking mainly in the area near my job but open.

I don't know. It may not be in its "Glory Days" but it's "Tougher Than the Rest."

Did he drug her too? The article seems to imply she was suddenly unconscious without any explanation of what happened.
I'm wondering if this was also premeditated.

Curiosity - is Allentown set for you? As in, are there options for nearby relocations?

Thank you. Like I said I'd be transferring branches within my bank. so not super worried about jobs. Finance is a writer by trade but has retail and data entry experience.

No clue what they’re talking about, the Lehigh valley is really booming with development, jobs, etc.
Allentown is ok, the west side is very nice and downtown has definitely gotten an upgrade with new development. Crime is relatively contained to a small portion of the city- but crime isn’t as bad as locals will make it out to seem. Allentown is a part of the greater Lehigh valley that has two other cities, Bethlehem and Easton-which both have thriving downtowns with great restaurants-as well as a bunch of other towns and townships.
