Yeah, if you can hardly afford rent in a philly row home then just pack up your stuff and move to central PA or another state! Sure, it's harder to find affordable rent or a job or roommates or public transportation outside of a city and people living paycheck to paycheck can't actually afford to simply move to another state but I'll definitely keep that in mind. Gentrification is too hard of a concept to grasp to grasp despite us watching it play out in real time, good thing we have people like you to explain.

Hope all the "I'm not rich, I'm just comfortable!" people enjoy doing real, physically demanding work for joke wages because there won't be any attractions left when the workers get priced out of the city. Gonna see a lot more business owner tears and print outs about how no one wants to work
