scosm...I think you made up your own idea of what I said. I didn't nor have ever said anything about race. Stats are stats; check your own ideas of racism since you went there and don't come for me.

Thats typical Grays. Dont worry, it happens to me all the time. People take it any way they wish and swear you said it that way...

You picked several of the nicer neighborhoods in the city - Northern Liberties and University City/Powelton Village - and then said how they are really dangerous and you have to watch out even while doing mundane things like going to the movie theater. Being a UC resident and as I'm sure any NoLibs resident would agree, you have no idea what you are talking about. They are not perfect neighborhoods but they are largely very nice. Then you listed several traditionally white neighborhoods as safe. I'm just spelling out what you left unsaid.

Hey yall, I have a close friend that lives in Baltimore. Would commuting from Baltimore to Philly every day be feasible for the first month or two?

That is a soul killing drive, or $90 each way by train.

it's $1152 to commute monthly.

yes, it is possible for a month or two...even if it wouldn't be pleasant. it IS much easier to get to philly from baltimore than atlanta. there's also megabus and greyhound express.

Again, stats on higher crime exist where they do; I don't compile them, I just watch the news.
