    Facts… for most of the neighbors in Philly it’s like that, but it’s also the same with bad neighborhoods one block and you in a good one… if your not from here you can easily get mixed up and think a bad neighborhood is good because it’s on the borderline of a nice one.

    I have driven through Philadelphia enough times now and will say that many of these neighborhoods mentioned are not near the main city area and no longer have a city feel to them. Once you go North of Highway 676, you're not in a big city anymore and it becomes more and more run-down looking. The same applies to the South. Once you drive past Hawthorne and Bella Vista on Grand Avenue, things look sketchy. Some of the cars parked along the center of Grand were victims of hit-and-runs and one was completely smashed in on the front.

    Good drive-thru! Numbers 4, 3, and 2 are contiguous to each other, all in a line along the river, and yeah, it's kind of a protected little pocket of space due to the river and how it gets super hilly through there. I lived a while in Center City, and never particularly felt unsafe there beyond what I feel in any big city. West Philly kind of the same. Despite the many gun deaths here in the last 2 years, most of that seems confined to two pretty select areas of the city, so overall it doesn't feel wildly dangerous to live here.

    Crime is NOT linked to poverty! That is a load of crap people have got to stop believing. Why then are most of our murderers from the same ethnic background? Poverty affects people of all races not just blacks, but blacks make up most of the criminals. I am safer in a poor white neighborhood than in a middle class black one. Culture is linked more to crime than poverty. That is just liberal B.S. Poverty does not cause crime.

    @@JohnSmith-ct5jd there have been many studies that have been done that prove this to be true. It's not only in the u.s. but all over the world... just Google the correlation between crime and poverty. It's not a black and white thing... although if you do your research you'll note that there is a large percentage of white people who commit crime against other white people because they're more often in closer proximity to other white people.

    @@aquilal7636 One, causation is not correlation. I am sure you know the difference. People with bad attitudes and a dysfunctional culture, and impulsive behavior, often end up becoming criminals. Guess what? The same type of people more often than not end up poor. Now, yes you are right about people committing crimes against those in close proximity. Very few whites live close to blacks. So yes, most white victims of crime are victimized by other whites. But a significant percentage of white victims are in fact victimized by blacks despite the lack of close proximity. So, thank you for proving my point. No wonder most white people avoid living in diverse surroundings and like to send their kids to mostly white schools. Self-preservation. As a white man, I have two kinds of people to fear: White people who might have a personal grudge against me, and black strangers. The second I can usually avoid by staying out of certain areas. Peace.

    I grew up in Fairmount back in the 70s and 80s it was once a very safe area but everyone was poor but we all act like one big family and we knew everyone in the neighborhood and back then if you didn't know someone you didn't come into the neighborhood because you will get jumped. Today Fairmount is a bunch of yuppies and not very safe do to Brewery Town being just across Poplar street not a good area and trouble always happens in the summer time with home invasion and carjacking by one demographic group who have always cause trouble.

    I was born and raised in Philadelphia. It was a wonderful place to grow up. I lived in Roxborough and the Northeast which were wonderful. Lots of activities for children and very safe. Street after street, the homes had beautiful, manicured terraces. I left Philly in 1988 because crime was increasing. I lived in Florida and Georgia when times were good. The South was booming. Now I'm retired and live in Northern PA. I love it here. Very safe compared to Philly.

Niche.com. etc. Including police data websites all provide crime data. What I learned from being a life long resident of Philly Is crime can happen anywhere. From the wealthiest neighborhoods to the roughest. No place in philly Is safe like no place In the USA is safe. Crime can happen anywhere. Besides this being a outdated video. (Look at the upload date) it's just for entertainment purposes. A transplant should not base their decision on a youtube video. Have a blessed day. Thanks for leaving a comment
