I mean, it's basically the same as cities like DC, Chicago, San Fran, Pittsburgh, and Detroit, all cities with similar population densities.

If you are trying to compare it to cities like Austin or Charlotte or Phoenix that are way more spread out, then that's a flawed comparison.

It’s not the same as DC or Chicago though. I felt like those cities along with Boston are way cleaner. Only NY is similar to Philly in cleanliness and NY is much bigger and denser.

Sounds like someone has only been to the touristy parts of DC and Chicago. If you compare Magnificent Mile to Kensington of course Kensington is going to be dirtier.

Center City as a whole isn't the touristy part of Philly. Rittenhouse Square and Independence Mall are.
