Philadelphia easily has more walkable suburbs throughout its metro area; this isn't subjective.
However, the worse-off suburbs in metro Philadelphia look rougher than comparable areas in metro Atlanta.
Overall I'm more inclined to give the "suburbs" category to metro Philadelphia as there's more variety there with true suburbs (Main Line, Collingswood, etc.), edge cities (Cherry Hill, KOP), and satellite cities (Wilmington, Camden) with most of them being connected to Philadelphia by rail.
I never said Philly suburbs were not .I was defending the Atlanta metro as being something that was categorized as something its not.
I lived in the Collingswood area when I lived in Marlton. So CHerry Hill and that area I know first hand.Its still suburban and people drove everywhere like I did. Its nothing quaint or special about it.
They are better connected by rail the areas themselves are more suburban as anything in the Atlanta metro
Atlanta metro for me! Lots of Atlanta suburbs are absolutely picturesque! You see stately homes with
beautiful landscaping hides between tall lush trees and the rolling hills. Just so nice...
Yea, I think suburban Atlanta runs circles around suburban Philly. I also think the nicest parts of Atlanta are much nicer than the nice parts of Philly.

I agree. Id take Roswell or Alpharetta over anything in Phillys metro.

Yeah, that couldn't be further from the truth but okay.
I would take Gladwyne, Chesterbrook, Ardmore, Doylestown, West Chester, New Hope, Haverford, Bryn Mar, Swathmore, Newtown Sqare over living anywhere around Atlanta.

We have plenty of this in the Philadelphia metro as well. Bucks, Montgomery, and Chester counties have tons of open land with greenery, hills, etc.. I don’t think this is exclusive to the Atlanta metro at all.
I have never seen so much debate over suburbs before lol.
