It's a tough call. I prefer Boston, just a tad- And as far as sports go, Boston makes a bigger name for itself over Philly. Also, it's basically the only city in New England that's nationally recognizable, whereas Philly is just 1 of the many Mid-Atlantic cities. Boston's just more original, while Philly is often noted for being similar to Baltimore, and "a borough" of NYC
Historically, they're both just as significant as the other.

But the 4 states of the Mid- Atlantic (DE, PA, NJ, NY) are more than Double the size then instead of 1 nationaly reconized city there are two.

More Original? How so? It also depends on who you ask. Like for me Philadelphia's past presence in the music industry( Hip hop, r&b soul etc) trumps Boston. You're gonna have to explain that one a lil further.

I agree, Philly is every bit as unique as Boston, maybe moreso
If anything Philly has less of a glossy image but character and uniqueness are not things it lacks. On the comparison to Baltimore or NYC. To Baltimore, yes some similarities, rowhouses etc even on people but Philly is a different character from Baltimore. on the NYC association. i do think Philly and New York do associate with each other, less so a Manhattan connection and more the city vibes themselves. They do have some similarities again but are by no means the same
Have you spent any time in Philly? Just look around. Yes, it is one of the biggest cities in the country, one of the bset? You got to be kidding
It absolutely is. It's my second or third favorite city in the country (competing with Chicago and exempting Boston since I can't be objective in that sense). What cities would you say are better?

Most South American cities, Los Angeles, and Miami, Chicago.
Most South American how? Demographically?
