We are considering NJ because the homeschool laws there are very relaxed vs PA that is very regulated, but are not against living in PA. My husband will be working a territory that includes Trevose PA, King of Prussia, then over to Lambertville NJ and back down to Trevose.
I have been searching for information on the Edgewater Park ~ Beverly NJ area, but can not find any discussions. Can anyone tell me about that area and would it be a good place to live. We like the small town feel, but also want to be close enough the do all the "Big City" things that Philly has to offer. Since we are homeschoolers, we would also need a home with space for the kids to play and maybe a neighboorhood park close by.
Any recommendations for NJ or PA would be welcome
Thanks for your help.
I would look at the areas you are zeroed into .. They are very nice, clean, safe areas and plenty of homes to look at.. You may want to include Delanco, Delran, Cinnaminson, Riverton and Palmyra too. Palmyra has a cute walkable downtown too.
