There isn’t a finer place to live and raise a family than the Philadelphia area, says Helen Conti, Realtor for Roach Wheeler in Blue Bell, PA. After all, where else can you fully enjoy the tree-shaded roads gently rolling through the beautiful countryside of Bucks, Chester,and Montgomery Counties, accented everywhere with our nation's history: Washington’s Crossing, Valley Forge, Independence Hall, and Betsy Ross’ House. In fact, the list of historical sites is almost endless! And, coupled with the extensive cultural genre - the first-rate Museum of Art, sensational Franklin Institute, world-renowned Philadelphia Orchestra, and our nation’s first Zoo - this tri-county area encompasses nonstop aesthetic wealth.

And, if diversity is your preference, where else can you devour a Philly Cheesesteak, enjoy the activities at Penn's Landing, shop the Italian Market, root for all four home sports teams? Or, within a short two hour (or less) ride, you can travel to the Pocono Mountains for year round activities, and the Jersey shores for summer bathing! Or the Atlantic City casinos, or the Big Apple for a Broadway show! (And imagine the Rockettes’ Christmas performance at Radio City Music Hall!) And how about Baltimore’s Inner Harbor and delectable crab cakes! Yes, this is THE place to enjoy life!
