Nicetown-Tioga is a neighborhood in the North Philadelphia section of the city of Philadelphia, in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. It comprises two smaller, older neighborhoods, Nicetown and Tioga, although the distinction between the two is rarely emphasized today. The name "Nicetown" is often simply used to refer to any part of Nicetown-Tioga. ==Geography== The boundaries of Philadelphia neighborhoods are often not universally agreed upon. There are no "official" boundaries to the Nicetown-Tioga area, but some possible boundaries are: * Wingohocking Street to the northeast (beyond which lies Logan); * Roberts Avenue to the northwest (beyond which lies Germantown); * Allegheny Avenue and the SEPTA rail tracks to the south (beyond which lie Allegheny West and Glenwood); and * Old York Road to the east (beyond which lies Hunting Park). This makes Wayne Junction station the northernmost tip of Nicetown-Tioga. The Philadelphia City Planning Commission (PCPC) defines Nicetown as a much smaller area bounded by Wingohocking Street, Broad Street, Hunting Park Avenue, and Clarissa Street;〔(Philadelphia City Planning Commission's Nicetown Fact Sheet )〕 it defines Tioga as a smaller area bounded by Broad Street, Hunting Park Avenue, the railroads (western boundary unclear ), and Allegheny Avenue.〔(Philadelphia City Planning Commission's Tioga Fact Sheet )〕 The 19140 ZIP code includes both Nicetown-Tioga and Hunting Park. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nicetown-Tioga, Philadelphia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
