I think Philadelphia is really nice. I love history and museums so Philadelphia offers more of the things I like, but San Francisco is nice also and I enjoyed visiting.
Nicely written. See the reasonable people post their opinions without insults, innuendos and rhetoric.
^^^^I'm not from Trenton but I always thought of it as being part of the Philadelphia Metro, its closer to Philadelphia but not far from NYC, it could really fall into either though.
Exactly...CMSA's are somewhat subjective to demographer's perceptions and are always, seemingly, evolving.
Wow, this thread won't die, somebody put a stake through it. What have MSA's got to do with which city is "better".
Would you move to one because of statistics
It's like that old movie, with the vicious, little babies...It's called "It Lives".
Just drive down I-95 in Philadelphia vs route 101(Golden Gate Bridge) in to San Francisco and one can easily tell which area is more impressive,more clean and more classy of a city.To heck with all this metro garbage ,it is all about first impressions.

If were comparing people, it's not even close. The SF Bay Area is by far the most progressive and socially conscious region in the US if not the world.
Yup...nobody is arguing the region isn't bigger, of course it is. But if Philly Starts getting more appropriated #'s... NYC and DC are going to get angry...
Those numbers would gladly be appropriated if warranted-the opinions of NY and DC would be totally irrelevent and have no bearing.

I totally agree; especially true when you first talk to a city's residents.
I know what you mean...as evidenced by the "tone" of this thread.
the tone of this thread:
Philly: Philly is actually as big as Chicagoland.
SF: No its not.
Philly: Yes it is.
SF: No its not.
Philly: You and the Census Bureau can **** off.
SF: We can **** till we turn blue and Philly is still not as big as Chicagoland.
Philly: Yes it is.
