Sure you can. You walk into a bank and ask for one. Most places even give it to you for free.

Not to mention there is plenty of pre-paid debit cards that offer direct deposit, though there is a fee.... for convenience.
I'm from the area and know plenty of people in philly with DD.

You ever here of this thing called direct deposit? It's kinda new.
Anyone can have a bank account. I grew up hood and graduated to adult. I'm betting I had the same some worse some better going against me and I established a checking and savings account right when I turned 18. Take ownership in yourself. Know body is going to buy stock in you till you until you make it actractive.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Not that it should ever be a problem but if you're ever on the line of loan or no loan them personally knowing u could be the difference.

It takes a white picket fence to set up a bank account?

While you Philly boys are setting up your direct deposits take a moment to consider going paperless as well. I have been paperless direct since it was first offered and I do not miss the paper paystubs at all. I go to upsers every Thursday morning to check my paystub and, if there is an error, I print it and highlight the error(s) so that my mgt team can begin the process. The only paper paystub that you really need is the end of year stub, which you can use to do your taxes.

I didn't know urban areas are the only places you can open a bank account.
Just to be clear, I don't work for FedEx. Crazy I know.

You need to work on your reading comprehension. The OP claims that it is more difficult to open a bank account in an urban area (I personally think he is full of crap).

I work 45-50 hours a week in an urban area. I have 10 bank accounts. Sorry to blow your argument out of the water so quickly.

How can you be employed and not have a bank account in the year 2014 ? No bank account = No savings = Living paycheck to paycheck = No credit = Not living the American dream
One thing since I moved to a credit union 4 years ago, I have not written a paper check out ever. Everything has been electronic. I still have half a book of forever stamps here in the drawer and not sure if I ever will use them again. I brought this up to my parents last week and they were astounded. They don't trust computers and still mail out their bills. I have some work to do with them

My father is 61 and has no idea on how to navigate the Internet, nor does he have the desire. I can't fathom it.
As far as banks go, when I was a kid my grandmother lived with us. She was born in 1920, grew up on very hard times during the depression. She always told my father that if there were ever a fire in our home, he absolutely needed to get her mattress outside. She would literally keep thousands and thousands of dollars stuffed in there because her father told her after the crash of 1929 to never, ever trust a bank.
