    Hilltown is a great place to live. There's lots of open space, farms, and woodland. It's close to local shopping or malls, and the shore or Poconos are within reasonable driving distance. Pennridge is a great school district from elementary school all the way through high school.

    Hilltown is good for its proximity to more developed areas while still feeling like you are in the country. Good school district and low crime. The neighborhoods can be a bit spread out however which makes socializing with neighbors difficult.
    The town is very safe! There is a drug addiction problem, and a lot of people are falling into the cycle.
