Hold on there! How big is Philadelphia in cheesesteaks? hold on, that's not right...
You might be wondering, "How many miles is Philadelphia?" But funny you should ask, because cities aren't measured in miles! We use a different unit to measure areas like cities, and that unit is the square mile.

But hey, that doesn't mean we can't quench your thirst for Philly knowledge! Here's some fun facts to hold you over while you grab a map (or fire up your favorite food delivery app to get your cheesesteak fix):
