Depends what your tolerance is and what you’re willing to spend to avoid it.

• the el no one should ever take, period
• broad street isn’t great either, lots of people downplaying this but there have been rapes in bsl stations recently. I’d avoid if
• on the bus you’ll get a typical bus experience. You’ll be safe.
• regional rail is fine other than the stations themselves. I’ve been riding septa for 20 years and I can say with confidence that this is by far the worst that the stations have ever been. Stick to rush hours.
