"A perfect area to live in Philadelphia"
The thing I love about Powelton most is the location - it's in Philly, yet still outside it. It's easy to access the downtown or University City, yet you can get away from all the hustle and bustle being in Powelton. There are lots of young families here, it's relatively quiet at night, does not have much traffic, it's very safe, has great schools, and has great public transportation options. I guess the biggest negative would be the lack of nightlife options in Powelton itself. This is actually a plus to me, as it's quieter at night, and yet there are bars less than 10 minutes away.
Pros
- Quiet and safe at night
- Easy commute to Center City or University City
- friendly people
- close to schools
- part of University City
Cons
- getting expensive
