Town in Pennsylvania
Current Resident: I've lived in Northumberland all my life. Our town and the city of Sunbury converged in the early 70's to form the school district of Shikellamy. To this day, there is still a feeling of Northumberland vs Sunbury. The people of Northumberland are proud of their Historic site of the Joseph Priestley House and their week long Pineknotter Days over the 4th of July. What people will tend to complain about is that there's not much exciting things to do around Northumberland. However, most residents enjoy this aspect of the town.... Read 5 reviews

Current Resident: I love the tight-knit community of Milton. Most people in this town know each other and are very friendly overall. The biggest problem with Milton that I would like to see change is the lack of activities. There is very little to do in this town, as many of us go to neighboring towns to have a good time....

Parent: Our experience at Shady Side Academy has been outstanding. Our daughter came to the school as a Sophomore after our family moved to Pittsburgh, and her transition was seamless. The students, faculty and administration made her feel a part of the Shady Side community from our first visit. The culture at SSA is extremely welcoming and inclusive for both the student and their family—it’s truly a partnership. Academics at Shady Side are rigorous, but the support from teachers is unmatched. We feel confident that our daughter will be successful not only in college, but beyond, due in large part to her time at Shady Side Academy. If you’re even slightly considering Shady Side as an option, I encourage you to attend one of their Open House events. That was the first step we took, and I’m so grateful that we did!...

Current Resident: It’s small and quiet. It’s a wonderful place to raise children, although there isn’t much to do. It’s a place where pretty much everyone knows everyone and the friends you make will last you a life time. It’s a conservative, majority white area, though the political views are probably 40 percent liberal, 60 percent conservative. It’s writhing 30 minuets of a great deal of stores and activities that are fun for the whole family. It’s also a great place to raise a family if you value being outdoors and allowing your children to play without the need for 24/7 supervision.... Read 1 review

Current Resident: Mount Carmel like any town has its flaws, there is not much here in terms of activities, night life, or restaurants. But it has access within a half hour to 40 minutes to several towns that offer it. Mount Carmel is a sweet little coal town that is a quiet place to raise a family, and have a starting point for first time home buyers to get their foot in the market at a reasonable cost. Out of many towns I've lived in PA, it is a good place to start.... Read 14 reviews

Current Resident: Trevorton is a great town to raise a family. The town is doing a lot to improve playgrounds in the area, and they are planning a lot of family friendly activities. The town is very safe, and everyone knows everyone. They community has been putting on a summer concert series once or twice a month, where families can come together and listen to a variety of music while the children play on the playground or the football field.

Former Resident: Coming from Harlem this place was Heaven on earth, that was over 40 yrs. ago. My folks still live there, I left in '92 for a better opportunity. Grew up here from 5th grade until HS graduation. Imo still a good place to raise a family, as opposed to larger cities. Diversity is better, even though rarely had problems being a person of color. I believe Sunbury is going through a revitalization phase which is great! My parents have told me that there is a problem with crime after dark, so there is a need for more law enforcement. Employment opportunity is still probably an issue unless you want to work at the mall across the river. For people who want to start over whom come from larger cities and are willing to work and not collect welfare, I highly recommend it! My suggestion is that you visit a few times before relocating...

Parent: Sidwell has provided my children with an exceptional academic experience emphasizing critical thinking and problem solving, writing and communications, and quantitative reasoning. The workload has been substantial at times, but always enriching and interesting (i.e., rarely if ever busywork) and will fully prepare students for the rigors they'll experience in college and beyond. Moreover, Sidwell has done a great job of developing my children as well informed, highly engaged, and socially conscious citizens. Strongly recommend!... Read 72 reviews

Parent: My son has been at Good Shepherd for three years and we've been very happy. He has had made great friends in the small classes, and gets plenty of attention from the dedicated teaching staff. He also loves the "perks" like the outdoors program, where they walk over to nearby Forest Hill park and down by the James River to learn about nature and Richmond. We also like that, even though it's small, there kids from all kinds of different backgrounds, which was different from what we found in a lot of the other schools we looked at.... Read 14 reviews
