That's just wawa re-labeling their horrible food so that it sounds authentic. Hot hoagie? Let's be real, it sounds as horrible as it is. Hot hoagie is warm soggy lettuce, melted mayonnaise, tomatoes so soft they turn to mush. Don't get me started on a hot tuna salad hoagie

You can't ask this question without first knowing the origins of the hoagie.

Do you think shipyard builders had a hot ass 'hoggie' for their lunch break? Or did they have a few minutes to toast their cold ass sandwich with a blowtorch from the welding rig?

Like everything else, there is some give and take. My wife and I settled in Newbold/East Point Breeze (the name of the neighborhood seems to be a contentious issue) after living in Queens (Woodside) for 15 years. One advantage that this area has is that all of our daily needs are within easy walking distance, and it has good access to transit. We're just West of Broad, so it's basically like living in East Passyunk.

Depending on where you lived in Queens, it will probably be similar in terms of safety.
