    "For Philly, it’s fairly family friendly. There’s not really good outdoor space for playing. Public transportation is limited to buses. The Italian market is really close, so great selection of cheese, meat, veggies, and plants. "
  • Lilcasanas
    "I have great access to a lot of stores, Italian/Asian markets, Stadiums and center city. Everything is great walking distance or easy public transportation. Parking can be a hassle if you don’t have a permit/personal spot."
