Is it rich in history, yes......but, what it represents now is kind of sad.
As far as Camden goes....well....its the murder capital of the United States based upon population and the state police had to be brought in to police the city because of so much corruption......for me, the only positive thing about the "metro" area is the Flyers.

I have been to Philly many times, but it was as a child. I lived in Dover DE and Wrightstown NJ about 20 yrs ago. I really dont remember much, but my father said that Philly was not clean.

I lived in Summerville SC for 6 years and I was forced to drive through North Charleston just to get on the interstate. Also, Florence SC is the murder capital of the U.S. per capita, downtown charleston is dirty and full of crime.

My point is that it does not matter what area that you live in...... every metro area has crime. However, it is simple solution, dont go into the bad areas

Abondoned cars in Collingswood, what a joke. But I am sure you will find them all over Ocala.

Move to Slocala(Ocala) already. You talk crap about every real city but don't seem to post about the dumps that are all over Ocala and other parts of Florida, especially the rising number of gangs in Ocala. Is there bad areas in every major city in the US including Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, etc.? Yes, but some of use appreciate what these great cities have to offer in terms of culture and amenities and would not subject ourselves to living in exile in Ocala.

Well......its a good thing theres no gang related activity in the Philly metro area and just think how bad it would be if New Jersey was filled with toxic Superfund Cleanup Sites ????

I notice you didn't respond to the cars that go missing every night in Collingswood only to turn up stripped on Camden streets the next morning ?

Its often referred to as "Filthydelphia".

I lived in Summerville SC for 6 years and I was forced to drive through North Charleston just to get on the interstate. Also, Florence SC is the murder capital of the U.S. per capita, downtown charleston is dirty and full of crime.
Then Camden lost its crown....at one time it did hold that "honor".

I can't agrue with that but there are those on here that would argue Philadelphia is an "amenity" or a "cultural center" that makes life better....hogwash.

It makes life better for me, it will not for you because you do not leave your cave in Burlington County.
