I know who's cooking today. PAAACO!!!!

Curious what it is about right now that means you can’t give your absolute best. I understand the sentiment, but wondering is that due to something about the current rental market, or otherwise?

I’ll dm you. Thanks!

Thanks for such a comprehensive response! This sort of confirmed a lot of what I assumed about the area and it’s quirks.

I absolutely can feel the difference in taxes and in general cost of living between the two even just looking at house prices; the same home with the same down payment will be several hundreds of dollars more in ATL than Philly.

I really love how accessible the city is and the surrounding areas with public transportation. Me and my wife love traveling and taking short weekends, so having such large and diverse cities so close by would be fantastic.

Really we’ve been checking all the surrounding counties for houses and then calculating the distance the commute would be to my potential job. So far, we like Delaware and Montgomery county the most, but have also found some nice homes in Bucks and Chester counties.

Yeah, thankfully, the block I'm on we all keep and eye out. We've caught people snooping mail boxes, stealing packages, and trying to wander into yards. All sorts of dumb shit. The homeless, the ones with addiction and untreated mental health problems, are making the area somewhat hellish. I used to walk around here as a kid without issue, now there are baggies and needles everywhere. Not to mention the "boom" parties, roving packs of bikes and other shit. It has gotten pretty fucked up.

Its kind of a "look nice" area now with a shitty under current. The ave has definitely been spilling over.

hurricane Ida slowed everything down by a lot

Drexel Hill is fine if you don't mind being closer to poorer areas in Upper Darby Township such as near 69th street. It is an extremely diverse and middle class neighborhood with really good connectivity to the city and Bala Cynwyd. My only gripe with UD township is the property taxes vs quality of housing stock, but that is very common in older bedroom communities in the NE.

Technically it was just a bunch of land and trees and shit until the Lenape settled there.

That's too bad, I go to the East Passyunk location and it's great, I got my free Thrive session when I signed up and besides for like three texts sent over the course of the last year I have not been bugged by the staff about changing my membership plan.

Please use the current megathread

One of my coworkers goes to that one, he likes it a lot but has said it's pretty rough how crowded it gets during the typical post work hours.

Not technically Fishtown, but this is still Memphis Taproom erasure.

Looking to move to Philly this year. I have a remote job, so my employment is secure and I don't need to worry about a commute. I may be attending a grad program at Temple in 2024, but it's a remote program. I could probably afford around $1000/month for rent, but preferably a little less. I have close friends living in Baltimore as well. I'm in my mid-late 20s and I love big cities, and I do have some experience navigating them (and plenty of experience with public transit).

I'm still learning about the neighborhoods and I plan to take a trip to Philly before moving, but does anyone have a neighborhood they recommend living in? I love being close to parks, museums, restaurants, etc. I would prefer a lower crime rate but I can navigate that if needed.- Thank you!
