I moved a year ago to Montgomery county and I like it a lot. There are a lot of public transportations which makes moving around a lot easier. I feel somewhat safe in this neighborhood. I work nearby and enjoy the fact that things are not far away from each other. There are a lot of variety of grocery shopping types. There is giant, acme, Whole Foods... many different shopping places too such as mall and boutiques. Nightlife is all right because there are several restaurants that are open late and beautiful small pubs and bars to go to. It is somewhat quite at night and safe. The county is kept pretty and clean. Lots of green areas and very dog friendly. Many habitations are houses that are expensive but beautiful m. There are some affordable apartments to live in that accept animals so that makes it easy if you have a pet. There are several job opportunities with decent pay. But nothing major as in different career fields. Overall I enjoy living here and I will probably keep being
Montgomery Country is a very close community. In my neighborhood, you can see people walking their dogs, children playing outside, and neighbors talking to each other. Shopping for groceries or whatnot is easy and simple -- everything is just a short drive away. The education is superb, too.
Montgomery County is a small suburban area in Pennsylvania. In a sense, I like to believe that Montgomery County is "in the middle of everything", in the sense that you have the best of both worlds being in a suburb and having urban Philadelphia a short distance away. Montgomery Country is an area where wonderful school districts and neighborhoods are located.
