that's not as bad as center city Philadelphia :D So close to the Italian part of town that we could hear the maffia gunning down each others
A few blocks from a project / a few blocks from a tourist trap / surrounded by yuppies / an old Jewish cloth neighborhood dating back to the Civil War.
All this was vey "colorful". Peaceful, it was not. :D

Are you from Philadelphia originally?

I'm French: I moved there in 1977-78.
My husband started a craft store in 1968-9, before it was fashionable. A bunch of hippies living in bombed-out buildings - now turned into the tourist trap known as "South Street". Mike is originally from south Jersey. Semi rural place - before it was eaten by malls.
We miss a lot of the convenience of a big city, but, if we had to do it again, we'll take "bovine bingo" any day.
