We are talking about Center City here, not "the city". Rittenhouse is not Fairmount or Strawberry Breeze... yet.

Lmao you clearly haven’t been to Fairmount recently, it’s bustling and more dense than ever. They’re putting up new apartments wherever they can.

Also do you mean point breeze or strawberry mansion?

I combined those for humour.

I get a lot of confirmed alerts on the Ring app coming from those three, and Fairmount started sticking out recently, because I did not expect it to be ripe with random attacks (like the one on that dude who was walking to a show at UT and got jumped and almost killed) and gun related crime at that rate.

And I don't think I got a single one of those from where I am at in 19103, so I'ma go ahead and stay put.
