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 are 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 a winter skiing, 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 aboutBaltimore’s Inner Harbor and delectable crab cakes! Yes, this is THE place to enjoy life!
