The key word being “Philadelphia”. I don’t know it, either, but I’m betting it’s an outskirt former town being sucked up by the city.

That's exactly what it is, and exactly why I moved my family the hell out of there two years ago.

Ten years ago, it was a garden spot, literally two miles outside of Philadelphia. I had a nine minute train ride to the University of Pennsylvania, fifteen to Center City. The only thing that has slowed its economic decline is an influx of upwardly-mobile homosexuals fleeing the city proper. But that's too little, too late.

Every time we hear about Lansdowne on the news, it's another atrocity. And then we congratulate ourselves.
