People in rural PA definitely care about Philly judging by how I've heard about Philly being a lawless hell-hole in some way basically everytime I've gone to visit my rural in-laws over the past decade plus.

A large amount of people believe that major cities are akin to no man's lands. They live in a completely different reality.
One night I was out at a party with a group of friends, and one of their SOs is one of those people that are convinced cities are warzones. While walking back after the parry we saw a man get in his car. What I and everyone else in the group saw was a guy having to jiggle his keys a bit to get the door unlocked and get in his car, what they saw was some dude deffinitively stealing a car in a lawless hellscape they were lucky to have walked through unmolested.

Parts of Philly, not insignificant in size, are no man's land... At least if you're sane.

You hear that from Philadelphians as well, it's not unique to rual areas.
