Philadelphia was a big melting pot of immigrants from Europe and still has sections that are that are broken up by nationalities. South Philly is mostly Itailian. Northeast Philly is mostly Jewish. Kensington is made up of mostly Irish and so on. The one section of Philly you really don't want to venture into is North Philly especially at night!!
