Sure! Some things that come to mind in no order:
* Food - an incredible an ever-changing restaurant scene, from cheesesteaks to 10-course tasting menus. And all much more affordable than fine dining in most US cities, plus free BYOB is extremely common.
* Music / Sports - incredible music scene with major and minor venues of all kinds, and a professional sports team in all 4 major leagues with a passionate fanbase.
* Size - neither a very large city (NYC) nor a very small city (Boston). Easy to get around, narrow streets make it very walkable.
* Attitude - Philly people are just different. I'd describe it as a "warm hostility" :) but you'll find Philadelphians are very welcoming while also being brutally honest.
* Diversity - there is no racial majority in Philly. It's about 40% white, 40% black, and 20% other.
* Price - Philly is cheap!
