You seem to be incapable of comprehending why someone that previously lived within a city and still lives within a stone’s throw of it would be on a city’s subreddit, so I won’t bother. Cheers.

Already happily doing all of that after living in Philly for a number of years sans relying on the city for income, thanks for the comedy though. Was just offering an alternative perspective to the echochamber hivemind y'all have going on in here. Maybe you wouldn't be so angry if you didn't live in philly..

Cleanliness, peace of mind not living with a constant state of noise and chaos around you, school systems that aren’t a complete dumpster fire, way less violent crime, just to name a few.
If you can’t see why people would prefer living in suburbs then idk what to tell you. And it’s really the people that live in cities that are “obsessed with where they live” in my experience. Probably because they’re trying to justify it to themselves.

So just say that you want to confiscate all the guns then. There’s more guns here than there are people, the rabbits out of the hat. You’re breaking the logic in your own argument by referencing “high-income countries”, the amount of wealthy people is a minuscule fraction of the total number in the US, most people are just getting by or poor which is the main problem here, along with people with mental issues and not fully developed brains (young people) having access to them. The problem isn’t inherently the guns themselves.
Fix the poverty and most of these problems go away. Confiscating all of the guns isn’t feasible, but none of this matters because doing either or those things isn’t in the interest of the people with power and money so they aren’t going to happen. So yeah this type of thing is going to continue to happen and that’s just the way it is, and can we stop with the empty posturing of “we need to something about all the guns”, it’s the nonsense of someone ignorant to the reality of the situation.

This is 100% the case, I've been noticing this since at least 2012-2013. October 2016 had a stretch where the high was beteen 75-80 for a week and half straight with 2 or 3 days being above 80.

Collingswood, Haddon Township, Haddonfield, New Hope, Media, Ardmore all have smalltown charm.
