Lively community with deep historical roots - family friendly! 5 rating By nab2389 ( Jul 16, 2014) People are typically helpful and kind. I feel safe walking/jogging/running early in the morning or in the evening. There is plenty to do around the area as it is an epi-center to many attractions and historical sites in the greater Philadelphia area. There are a couple dozen g ...Read More reat nature trails, rivers and areas to picnic or spend quality time with family. Phoenixville HS gets honored regularly for its educational excellence. The school was recently physically updated and they have an awesome sports facility. I am not originally from Phoenixville. I come from a more urban area and the peace in this place is one in a million - you can't find better neighborhoods in Pa! Ranked next to other cities like Reading, Philadelphia, Norristown, Allentown, etc you will find that the crime rate is drastically lower nearly 95+% better to raise a family, retire or even just to get started. The Phoenixville PD is out regularly patrolling and adds to the safety factor of our community.

Phoenixville has beautiful seasons that are truly picture perfect. Different races, creeds, and religions make PVille unique but culturally stimulating. Everyone has a home in Phoenixville! Read Less
