I’m really glad to hear you had a good time. I still love Philly just as much as when I wrote this post. I’m glad to hear an outsider agrees.

I just visited Philly for the first time…Yes, this city is a great city with so much to do. It's very practical but fine as well. The prices on just about everything are reasonable, even high end activities. I want to live in this city in a bad way. I currently live in Dallas, Tx, a city that is on the rise but it is far away from Philly, and so are most of the other big cities I've been to (San Francisco, Seattle, New York City). Philly is America's best kept secret. And I didn't even mention how culturally diverse it is. Also, there is a certain togetherness that you feel there as well. Just don't go to Camden.

I don't live in philly , but I would say it is a great city with great potential. The people of Philadelphia need to realize this ,and come together to make it better. They have the most incredible history in the country and should take great pride in it. Out there in the virtual atmosphere you hear alot on negative about the city. Most of that is coming from it's own people!. Philadelphia, wake up and realize your potential! Come together black and white alike! Be the city William Penn invisioned for you! You can do it. Take great pride in what you've been given and go for the label “Greatest City in America” Your beginnings were great and you are special if you could only see it yourself. Look at Pittsburgh and see the turn around they made! Go for it!
