The unmentioned tidbit here is that Philadelphia annexed the entire Northeast section of the city to fatten it's checkbook. The Northeast section was and remains largely white and jewish.

If the Northeast section was never taken over, Philly would have been Detroit fifty years ago.

Still just a matter of time.

RE; The Northeast section was and remains largely white and jewish.

What’s to stop the folks living in the Northeast section from migrating to friendlier climes OUT of Philly?

Most of the productive folks in Detroit did it over a decade ago.
