I don't think you're missing anything, though for West Philly, if you're already taking the El / Trolleys, take them 1 / 3 more stops to City Hall (for Suburban Station).

West Philly has better access to Fishtown via the El, if nightlife there is important to you. South Philly has better access to the stadiums if you're interested in sports. By "better access" I just mean you don't have to change services.

Please also reconsider having a car in the city. There's no need for one unless you enjoy paying insurance premiums on a parked car.

Thanks for the response. And I plan to ditch my car. A major factor in considering this move is that my car is close to the end of its useful life, but I really like my current state of not having car payments.
