  • H.A.W.
    "Lived here for 10 years. Can't beat the location....from here to CC/downtown takes 10 minutes, but you're also close to the Main Line/Delco suburban shopping. Most houses have a garage, most blocks are quiet and well-kept. Prices have been steadily climbing up (my house is worth double what I paid for it 10 years ago) and lots of new apartments are being built...I think the secret is out that Wynnefield is a pretty good neighborhood in a great location."

    "I drive daily, so my commutes are easy.. but when I used to take septa, my commutes were good 95% of the time when the G bus ran as scheduled. During the winter season, sometimes the G bus doesn’t come across the bridge and it makes for a difficult commute. "
