Philadelphia

Dear Students,

Philadelphia is where I live but to be more specific I live in the Lawncrest section of the Northwest. Philadelphia is made up of different sections. My neighborhood is very quiet unlike other neighborhoods which could be noisy and dangerous. There is a playground, park, and basketball court all up the street from my block. Also around the corner is a Burger King, Rita's Water Ice, and Dunkin Donuts. All throughout Philadelphia a.k.a Philly there are numerous of hot spots where teens have fun or hang out. My favorite hang out is Franklin Mills Mall and Cornbread& coffee. Some other places are Jamz Skating Rink, movie theaters, and the Museum. My deepest concern about Philly is the murder rate. On about the 96th day of the year there were about 100 murders. The saddest part about it is that a lot of babies and children are being innocently killed on a daily basis. Also Philadelphia has many things to after that other cities don't for example our Philly Cheese Steaks and Tasty Cakes that only sold exclusively here in Philly.

Sincerely,
Briana
