What it’s like to live in Richmond
Riverfront renaissance energizes Richmond, where Philadelphia's former industrial district along the Delaware River now features distinctive adaptive reuse projects alongside traditional row homes. The developing commercial district continues adding amenities serving resident needs beyond visitor experiences, while excellent public transportation including multiple bus routes and the Market-Frankford Line creates car-optional possibilities. Though some industrial operations remain active, the combination of affordability, character, and riverfront access creates compelling value for households seeking distinctive environments beyond cookie-cutter apartments.

What it’s like to live in Stanton
Medical students gravitate to Stanton for its unbeatable proximity to Temple University Hospital without the premium pricing of university housing. The neighborhood's classic Philadelphia row homes often feature surprisingly spacious floor plans compared to newer construction, with many including finished basements providing bonus living space. Unlike Center City's parking nightmare, street spots remain reasonably available, with some properties offering rare rear garage access. Cecil B. Moore Avenue provides all your daily necessities without requiring vehicle trips, while multiple transit options connect to both downtown and suburban hospital rotations. What longtime residents appreciate most: the community gardens transforming former vacant lots into green spaces where neighbors build connections beyond adjacent walls.
