Media, Everyone's Hometown, is a great little community. It's downtown ( State St) of about 8-10 blocks has a nostalgic feel of yesterday's past. This is what attracted to me buy property here. There a multitude of restaurants, sport bards, and sandwich shops suited for catering to anyone palate. There are also a myriad of small retails shops including vintage finds, an old 5 and dime called Deals which will take you back to the 50s,60s and 70s. Crystal shops, candy, stationery and almost anything else you can think of. Not to mention that there is a trolley that runs it full length and connects to SEPTA. Truly a small town that takes you back to the past when Main St. was where neighbors met and talked about life, the universe and everything.
Living is Media is also great.

Moved here from Philadelphia thirty years ago for the schools and found a cute little Courthouse town with some interesting older homes and a couple of good restaurants.
It only got better. It is now a restaurant destination with regular outside dining en masse. (We were prepared for covid dining years ago.) Lots of special events, newer playgrounds. Great access to Philadelphia (trolley or train.) And the PHL airport is within commuting distance. Good Farmers Market most weekends. Oh, and People are truly nice here.

Media is a great town for any young person moving out on their own or anyone with a family. There is always something for everyone to do in Media. Downtown Media can be a fun place to go out to the bars at night or have a nice dinner with the family. With cute shops and locally owned business, Delaware County pride is painted all over the town!
