#3 Most Diverse Places to Live in Philadelphia Area
Norristown
Current Resident: norristown is a pretty standard town. there are better parts of town than others but thats everywhere. The bad parts of town aren't that bad, but you need to know how to read situations. Read your surroundings; notice the people you pass by, notice if a street looks TOO secluded, learn when to stop staring at people, etc. also, be friendly! if you're walking past someone on the street, say good morning! The homeless population is on the rise so be kind! If you don't have a dollar to spare, don't be rude; most of us are 2 missed paychecks away from being them! Norristown has good people, good food, and mostly a good sense of community. The proximity to hubs like KoP and blue bell give a lot to do for the kids. The proximity to golf courses, national parks, walking/hiking trails gives something to do for nature lovers! Schools in the district aren't too good academically, but socially build safe environments for “different” kids.... Read 86 reviews
