Remember that show with Will Smith, the Fresh Prince? The song started out "In West Philadelphia, born and raised". Yeah, I had an apartment there for a while, there is a reason Will left for California. Nothing like getting off the city bus at 1am in your uniform on a Saturday night when all the local kids are still hanging out and bored(not waiting to help Grandma cross the street I might add). TARGET! TARGET! On the other hand I did enjoy Center City and some of the other areas around Philly.
