Pew: Philadelphians feel less positive about city
A public opinion poll published by the Pew Charitable Trusts shows a downward drift in Philadelphians’ attitudes about their city and its government.
This “slightly-less positive outlook” is evident in answers to a wide range of questions. It comes in the forms of poorer ratings for most city services, lower assessments of the quality of life in the neighborhoods, fewer residents approving the city’s overall direction and reduced job approval numbers for Mayor Michael Nutter and City Council this year compared to last.
Most of the declines are in the single digits.
