Philadelphia's Chinatown is still very vibrant. It has a great restaurant scene. Lots of the typical Cantonese restaurants are giving way to a diverse cross section of Asian regional restaurants, like Schezuan, Dim-Sum, Xian, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Taiwanese, etc. Tons of bubble tea spots and now a couple Thai rolled ice cream places. And a food hall just opened. It's still mostly Chinese and hasn't gentrified. The neighborhood is growing - lots of the existing 3-4 story buildings are getting 1-2 story additions. It's a little rough around the edges, but not at all blighted.
