The things I like about Philadelphia (the city of brotherly mugging) are cheese steaks (but provolone cheese please), awesome Italian food, and Philadelphia pretzels. The rest of it-not so much. I hate the row homes and how run down much of the place looks. The infrastructure there seems ancient. I married a woman from south Jersey, and you can't get far outside of Philly and south Jersey before the magic hoagie rolls don't exist anymore. Even the Wa Wa stores make a damn good Italian Hoagie. Much better than so called delis in other states.
