[quote=Annie Hall;767197]old city & society hill are not even remotely in south philly. look at a freaking map. large parts of swcc are also not in south philly -- fitler square, et al.

why do people in south philly think their neighborhood encompasses the entire city?? and more importantly, why do they care so much?

i get that you south philly natives feel QV & BV are part of SP, and at one time is was, but QV has a very different feel than the rest of SP.[/quote]


It still is part of South Philly, but due to the changing in residents and housing, it just has a fancy name. It's in a south philly zip code. I live in BV for a while, before that lived in what I only knew as South Philly ( I think it's considered Passyunk square or Passyunk crossing now, not even sure). When people asked where I lived, I'd say- South Philly, and if they ask where at in South Philly, I'd say- Bella vista, near the Italian Market, and that worked fine.
