Hi everyone!
I am currently located in Atlanta and I am considering moving up to Philly or the suburbs. Would like to go to school in Philly (Delaware County Community College) and my boyfriend works in west PHilly (63rd st & Market St) I filled out the questionnaire below =)

When are you moving? Depends on when I can find work and a place to live
Where are you coming from? Atlanta, GA
Why are you moving? Better job market
Where will you be working? Will be starting a business as a birth doula but can work at as a vet tech in the meantime
Have you been here yet? yes

Will you buy or rent? Rent
If buying, are you looking for a house or a condo? How much can you spend?
If renting, are you looking for an apartment, a townhouse or loft? How much can you spend? Something with a yard, would prefer a house, with a commute that will not be too bad to downtown
Do you prefer hi-rise or walk up?

Do you have a preference of living in a NJ or PA suburb? no preference just need a decent commute time. public transportation is ok

Are you married or single? Do you have children? single, no children
Do you prefer public or private schools? not applicable at this time
Do you have pets? YES!!! probably my biggest issue. 5 dogs (35-60 lbs) that I show (AKC, think TV dog shows) and breed
Do you want or need a yard? NEED
Are you keeping a car? yes
Do you prefer bustling activity or calm and quiet? don't care

What do you want to be closest to?
*Work*
Shopping
Basic services (supermarket, drugstore, etc.)
Nightlife
*Train or subway stations*

Do you want to live with people of a similar age, race, religion or sexual preference or do you prefer a diverse neighborhood? No preference

I'm just trying to get a feel for where I should start looking. I live in a pretty rural area right now.
Thanks in advance!
