Germantown - Penn Knox Reviews
Rating 3.83 out of 5 6 reviews
Germantown is a wonderful neighborhood! This neighborhood is founded on diversity and equality by Quakers centuries ago. The area also boasts many unique shops, restaurants, parks, cobblestone streets and lovely Victorian homes. If you’re ever in town, I’d suggest visiting my favorite place, the Joseph E. Coleman Library (I try to visit once a week).
Overall Germantown is a decent place to live in a good place to raise a family there should definitely be improvements on the job market as well as the real estate market. There are several schools in the area for both primary education as well as those seeking to further their education.
All of the businesses in the area are great. If there's one store that doesn't have something you need there's another store down the street. They all have great customer service and are very convenient.
