Rin, I didn't use the ATM but this was Ocean Drive South Beach Miami , it was a safe enough area.
You are missing a whole world of amazingness as far as sandwiches go.
North Philly is a shithole.
I wonder if Denver recently decriminalized being an addicted bum.
You guys are creeping me out.
I already bought the plane tickets for us to take my partner's 12 year old nephew, a history buff, to Philadelphia after school gets out for the historical stuff.
The touristy parts of Philadelphia seem fine to me.

Liberty bell park area full of hoodlums even when I was a kid, probably same or worse today.
The ghetto in Philly has amazing food as well.
They're also likely getting the raw food/product from the same vendors as the nicer places anyway. They can work on making it better instead of the bottom line and pretending to be fancy.
Mywifepartner wanted to take nephew to Washington for the historical stuff. It was my idea to also go to Philadelphia a couple of days before to take him to some stuff there before driving to DC, also being as how Gettysburg would be a reasonable dog-leg on the drive.
Another part of the dogleg will be a battlefield to go see in the Shenandoah Valley where my greatgreat grandfather got wounded in the 114th NY regiment, at the battle of Cedar Creek. That site'll be part of the dogleg to DC. The family lore is that he got shot in the ass, the joke is maybe running from the enemy! Heh heh.
and check out the Amish Paradise near Intercourse, PA
You'd think they would have a good cheesesteak!
At best, they have the first solo restaurant of the Omakase expert, Morimoto.

But guess what? There's a 2nd restaurant in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood and I'd much rather be in NYC than Philly, any time of the day. And others have sprung up in other parts of the country as well.
Philly's at best, an Omakase has-been town, along with 'so what' foods like Pretzels & Cheesesteak (which any decent town out there can make), along with loser teams like the Eagles.
Philly is the east coast San Francisco but w/o a Silicon Valley nearby, unless you think that South Jersey & Delaware industrial parks are hi-tech.
