I grew up in a big house in Richboro & went to school w/other "rich kids". When I was around 23 yrs. old, I met my current husband. He grew up in Perkasie, a town I'd never heard of till I met him. I absolutely fell in love with it. I will never go back to Richboro/Holland...money is NOT everything. The people are completely different in Perkasie compared to the stuck up, shallow, fake people I was used to encountering my entire life in Richboro (not ALL, but MANY). We got our first apartment in Perkasie, had our daughter, then purchased our first house together-there was no wavering-it HAD to be in Perkasie. I have never been so happy to pull up to my dwelling- even in our 2BR apartment I was positively giddy pulling up to it every single day. I was, & am, just in love with the town. There is something special out here. The people here share a special bond. A magical place to raise your family. Lots of historic stuff- the old carousel, the covered bridge. I'll never leave!
Perkasie is a small town outside of Philly with a great community to raise children and have a family. It is definitely not a place to come as a city or party person, but it has been perfect for me. There are farms nearby while also being sandwiched between Quakertown and Doylestown, two big shopping hot spots! It has really cute vibes with a small town square and everyone is nothing but kind with annual celebrations and traditions. I truly love living here!
I love Perkasie! I have spent my entire life in this beautiful town and wouldn't trade it for the world. Perkasie is in the middle and many different towns, with easy access to plenty of activities. The beautiful architecture, friendly families, and quaint businesses makes you feel right at home.
