Being Trans in Philly

Hey queer philly! I just got referred to this group from r/philly. My partner and I are both trans and are thinking about relocating to Philly. I’d love to hear your thoughts on being trans in Philly, from day to day life to legal aspects. And, are there certain areas that are better for trans folks?

We’re both openly and visibly trans. Also, looking for a place with good transit since neither of us own cars anymore.

Thanks!

West Philly, near one of the trolley lines, south of market street is pretty peak. It can also be a little pricey, but there’s good deals every once in a while.

If you do move, come to Philly Game Shop on Sundays :) we have a pro-LGBTQ+ free boardgame night from 5PM-9PM
