[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for all of this helpful  feedback! So glad that I posted here. I will definitely also look into Swarthmore, Jenkintown and Cheltenham as  recommended. And probably stay away from Wayne. Two quick follow ups:

How much longer would the commute be into Center City from Swarthmore vs Bala or Ardmore?

Are there any safety concerns with the Bala Cynwyd/Lower Merion area? I've read online that it may border a sketchy part of Philly. But I also recognize that "sketchy" can mean very different things to different people.

And property taxes higher than MoCo?!?! That is truly frightening...[/quote]

Honey, if you think MoCo taxes are high then you definitely shouldn't move to a northeastern suburban town. We got it really good here in comparison with the folks in equivalent suburbs in NY, NJ, PA, CT and MA. Of course, you get much better services and schools on the town level there but that's the trade off.[/quote]

And of course if the Republitards get their way none of those high SALT in PA will be deductible...[/quote]
