I actually like Philadelphia. Get rid of the crime, it's a nice city. I just can't do the winters there

fukk Krasner

He got impeached and started feeling the heat so he dropped that “criminal justice reform” bullshyt.

Literally went from highest murder rate ever to lowest in one year.

The most walkable big city in America.

Even more than New York and sf

Narrow streets. Was surprised when I went out there

Philly is a good city.

I use to hate seeing it get hated on on the coli (this was more of a 2015-2019 thing)

According to the latest data provided by the Philadelphia Police Department, homicides in Philadelphia are down 40 percent in Philadelphia as of Tuesday morning compared to the same time period last year. If you think I’ve told you similar things in the not-too-distant past, you’re not wrong. Back in April, I cautiously reported that our homicide count was down 34 percent. I say cautiously because, well, anything can happen at any time, sending those numbers in the wrong direction. Also because we hadn’t yet hit summer, and generally speaking, summers are associated with more violent crime.

Well, friends, guess what? Summer is officially over. And we went from a 34 percent decrease in homicides as of April to a 40 percent decrease in homicides as of today. If we stay on that track, that would mean that we’d end the year with 246 homicides. And if we do that, 2024 would tie 2013 for the lowest number of homicides in Philadelphia for the last 56 years. To do better than that, we’d need to end the year with fewer than 234 homicides. That’s how many homicides the city saw in 1967. One can hope!

The most underrated city next to Detroit is Philly. I had a ball every time I've been.

Glad to see it's getting away from it's Killadelphia, Pistolvannia days....

Impeached by Republicans from central PA, stop it

Nothing about his office changed they were roofing murderers all along. You need arrests and evidence to do that though and the PPD quiet quit because they hated Commissioner Outlaw (outsider) and Mayor Kenney (literally quit on the job)
Now it's a Commissioner from within the department and a new Mayor the police are doing their jobs and Krasner approach is working. He completely dismantled the philly drill scene
