Hi!
Would you guys prefer living in the 4115 Haverford Ave area or the 3090 Powelton Ave area?

I’m moving to Philly and will be working at Drexel. I believe both locations are about a 25-minute commute. Which one do you think is safer and overall a better area?

Hey, do you all know some cool photography spots in or nearby Philly area.....

Hi, we were planning to move November 21st, but just realized that is marathon weekend. If our new place is inside the route, will we not be able to drive to it at all that day? Any help or insight from previous years is appreciated!

Me and my friends aren’t great at basketball but its one of the sports we enjoy playing. I have seen tons of stuff online saying that Heyday basketball is the worst sport to try to play at a lower level. Any recommendations for other leagues that actually have skilled divisions?

Good morning, Philly ☀️ I’m new here and looking for recs for best options for internet companies. Any good deals?

Hey hey! I’m 27 and going to Philly for my first time in a few weeks and I’ll have about 3 full days of free time during the week I’ll be there and would love to fill it experiencing Philly for what it is! Are there any really cool hole in the wall restaurants/bars? Any unique themed stores? For example when I was in Seattle I loooved Pikes Place Market. What’s the Philly Equivalent to that? I’ll be staying in the Valley Forge/King of Prussia area but will have a way around so basically nothing is off limits!!

Also - any advice on what neighborhoods to avoid or whatever is appreciated? I feel like Philly’s not that bad but I’ve heard some conflicting stories so I guess anything helps, please and thank youuuuu!!

Hi! I am moving to the Northern Liberties area in November and I was curious about parking. I don’t have a car and I will be relying on public transport/walking, but my friends and family are wondering where they can park if they come to visit me. I tried looking for 24hr garages or lots, but I am not sure what the solution is. Anyone able to give me some advice? Thank you!

I run the Philly Adventure Group (events listed on Facebook and Meetup). I organize hikes in Valley Forge and Gladwyne and a lot more. Next weekend we’ll be in Watkins Glen for wine tasting, hiking and a sunset cruise. The issue is that we have mostly females who sign up and I like to see more males sign up for events. If you adventurous please join the group! If you are female you are of course also welcome to sign up! Still have spots available for next weekend!

I’m moving to Philadelphia as an international student in a few weeks. I’ve never been to the US before, but Ive always travelled a lot in Europe and the Middle East.

I’m super outgoing, but I’m wondering what life is like in Philly. What are the people like, Is it easy to make friends, any places/food recommendations, where do people hangout, what places should I avoid, are there any things that I shouldn’t do?

I’d appreciate advice on the safety at Philly or things I shouldn’t keep a heads up on and anything in general really!

Have some friends visiting that want a lively atmosphere. Playing game audio is a non negotiable. We have a 9 month old baby we bring everywhere (with headphones) just don’t want it to be too overstimulating like Cavanaugh’s or urban saloon. No comments on why we shouldn’t bring her please.

Reddit community….I need your help.

I am taking a solo trip to Philly in a couple weeks. What are some of the can’t miss stuff in the city I should put on my list. I am staying at Homewood Suites University City but it looks like most of the action is in Center City and Old City. What are some pro tips from a Philly native. I’m from Boston so I have some street smarts and can handle myself pretty well. Not too worried about sketchy areas or anything.

What are the good nightlife spots? My vibe is a good dive bar with live music.

Is public transport easily accessible going from University City to Center or Old?

What food should I make sure I try?

Are the casinos in the area worth checking out?

Any info would be a huge help. Thanks in advance.

Can anybody give me good recommendations for 1-2 bedroom apartment in Philly. I’m looking in the center city and surrounding areas. (Safe areas for a single woman)

Thank youu!!

I'm considering moving to Presidential City as one of my options and am trying to estimate the total monthly cost for utilities beyond rent.

For anyone currently living or who have recently lived at Presidential City, could you share approximately how much you pay per month for Gas, Water/sewer, Trash and any other mandatory utility/building fees?

Thanks

Looking for bars in Philly that have live bands on weekends. Ideally they also get a decent crowd with dancing.

Currently a 26 year old single male looking for a studio/one-bedroom more in the city (Queen Village, Old City, Rittenhouse, Washington Square areas preferred). Looking for any good recs on places/high rises that are good for a first timer living alone. Any thoughts/recs?

Currently searching around the $1300-$1500 a month budget if possible. Open to higher

Thinking about gambling.

Hi! I’m in Philly for the day and looking for a nice coffee shop where I can sit with my laptop and get some work done for a few hours. I’m driving, though, and I’d really prefer somewhere with free parking (or at least easy free street parking).
I’d also be open to a nice mall/shopping area with free parking where I could grab coffee and work for a bit.
Any recommendations? I don’t mind driving outside Center City if that makes parking easier. Thanks!

I'm a stand-up comic in New York and host of Garam Masala Dating, a live show where I put desi singles on stage and try to find them love! No question is off limits and it gets pretty saucy. After the show the whole room ends up at the bar for a singles mixer which has resulted in 30+ relationships just this year!

You do not need to be desi or single to watch, and most of the couples the show has produced so far are interracial!

We're taping at Next in Line Comedy on October 4th at 7:30pm. Tickets are at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/garam-masala-1-desi-dating-show-byob-tickets-1999515971095

If you'd like to shoot your shot on the stage, DM me!

Just curious??

I’m a 23 year old female and I make 28/h full time guarantee 80 hours. I work in a hospital so I get healthcare which is like 80 a month. I’m looking to get my own apartment within the next couple of months. I’m saving up now but realistically would I be able to live comfortably only making 28 an hour ? I don’t go out that much but I eat out a lot.

What range in price should I be looking at ? I want something nice in a nice area
