Just like with bicycles and getting mugged, you don't have to be unrobbable. You only need to look like a harder target compared to what's nearby.

> Physical risk
Okay, Philly is a damn good city for that. We get almost no disastrous weather, and we're too far removed from the Atlantic to get a proper punch from a hurricane. We're also pretty high above sea level.
> Policy risk
Eh, I guess.
> Median household income
That must be a low weight.
> GDP
There's the NA bias, we basically print money due to the post ww2 power structure.
> Transport
Yeah we got PHL, 30th St station, Septa RR, Septa BSL/MFL, and PATCO. We're a minor port, though.

This feels like it's incredibly biased towards North America or the anglosphere.
We're ranked higher than Shenzhen, Tokyo, and Berlin.
Uhhh, no. I love Philly, but any metric that puts us ahead of them has some major flaws.

>Ryan Boyer, who leads the council, acknowledged that Parker is at the moment not a frontrunner in the race to win the Democratic nomination.
I would strongly suggest reading the whole article if you can or getting a promo subscription to the Inky for the mayoral race.
This article is short in length but has a number of details surrounding the union endorsements and war chests.

Not the parking lot with the two dragon statues on 9th and Cherry, just FYI.

> The trades unified four years later, at first hoping to back City Council President Darrell Clarke for mayor until he declined to run. The trades then became one of three super PACs that spent more than $4 million to back Kenney in the 2015 primary.

I like the Hard Rock because it's not a labyrinth old style casino designed to keep you wandering inside.
It feels more like a convention center with gambling. It's easy to pass through naturally.

Reply to comment by hwyunicorn in Why do BSL express trains not hold for an extra 5 seconds so the local passengers can transfer by RoughRhinos
Every time I go back through WRTC, it has been worse. 5-6 years ago there were benches and people would sleep in front of the exhaust vents for the west headhouse.
They have just been slowly removing more stuff and putting barriers around everything to make it suck even more. It's the single most hostile place I've been to.

Looking at the map, I swear the other comment that mentioned the track sharing with the Spur has to do with it.
The Express is just about lock step with the Spur once they meet up. The Spur makes one stop the Express doesn't.
I'd dig an Express skipping down to Oregon, though.

PATCO and the Riverline are fine on weekdays during peak hours. PATCO is five minutes or less, Riverline is every 15 and sometimes a double train.
On the weekends, you can take just PATCO or just the Riverline, and you'll do okay.
But if you need to take both...yeah you're gonna kick a lot of rocks at WRTC.
