    "Chestnut Hill is a beautiful place to raise children. It is still in the Philadelphia school district but I can honestly say. The schools in the Chestnut Hill area are some of the better schools in the district. Also, my children attend school in the Plymouth meeting area we do visit me in this area often and as a parent, I am comfortable with the community, that’s actually one of the reasons I decided to relocate here."
