I have multiple friends who are career cops and they said the area near Kensington and Somerset is the worst part of the city, by far. It's literally the largest open air drug market in the country. It's like Hamsterdam from The Wire

November 29, 20214 yr Author I know 3 people who were found dead on the streets down there in the past few months. Good kids who grew up in good families. It's horrific. Check out the Kensington Beach Facebook page..... It looks like a horror movie

I don’t know if you’ve ever read about how Phillies fans used to pay kids to watch their cars when they still played at Connie Mack Stadium.

November 30, 20214 yr A long time ago I used to volunteer at a church down there feeding homeless people. It was freaking awful. Yet, somehow, it has become worse.
November 30, 20214 yr My dad is from kenzo. He took me there when i was about 12 to see it and it was an ish hole then. That looks like it might be mogadishu…
