Forrest Ave, West Oak Lane

There is an elementary school (Edmonds) within walking distance so that's a plus if you have children. All the houses on the street are row homes that are small but appear to be in fairly decent shape. Forrest Ave is full of working class families and there is a bus route that runs down Thouron Ave that will take you near Chestnut Hill or to Stenton Ave or to Broad Street where you can catch the subway to downtown or the sports stadiums.
