Just saw story on fox29 about a guy who tried to attack and steal a bike from another guy in Old City. And there was the recent article about rampant bike theft in the city. Stuff is happening all over. Broad and Erie isnt likely more dangerous than any other major intersection in North or West Philly. There just isnt much around that location outside of Temple Hospital and Shriners, there isnt a lot of activity up there right now or much in the way of places to eat.

I mean. This is an exaggeration.
Is there crime everywhere? Yes.
Are you safer at 23rd & Cambria than you are at Berks and Gaul? LOL NO. Give me a break.
You sound like Leonard Leo and Ronald Lauder.
