Pre-Delco

Delaware County when it was simply called the "suburbs", where there were trees, back yards, clean streets, and nobody opened fire plugs on hot days since there were some real swimming pools there. Darby-Colwyn and Chester were the exceptions, and were the original Delco. Pre-Delco is a term usually used by older persons who lived in W or SW Philly and remember when those suburbs was where "the rich folks" lived, or folks moved to once they became successful or got a better job, and then they got all hoity-toity, snobby and lost all sense of street-smarts.
Movin out to Pre-Delco Upper Darby, Ridley, or Yeadon used to be the American Dream and were real nice places till folks stopped sweepin off their front stoop, cuttin their grass, and takin their trash cans in, so it's been downhill ever since.
