What Renters Like and Dislike About South Philadelphia Philadelphia

What's unique is that it's chill and shi any all my favorite business is chick fil a because It's good asf and my bxch loves it too

Waking to bars & restaurants is so easy. Everything is close by. So many families, dogs & people my age.

The neighborhood is a quiet one with lots of places to go..the library..two nice places to eat dinner and hair saloons

It's quiet and safe with a country setting. My dog has room to run and we have room for company for gatherings without bothering anyone

There is nothing I Jair about it . Favorite business is Rosario's . I don't take family here bc it isn't nice

My neighbors are unique in every way they are wow and happy and wow and nice. They are nice and different and wow.
