Reading,PA (Philadelphia, York, King of Prussia: place to live, train, suburbs)

Is anyone else here from Reading which is in the Philly suburbs(I guess)?


If not than any inquiries in to if it is a good place to live will be responded to with laughter.

While some people commute from the Reading area to exurban offices in, say, Exton or King of Prussia, it isn't really part of the Philadelphia metro although continuing suburban sprawl - and the long-promised Schuykill Valley Metro train - will make that inevitable.

I can say that the city of Reading itself does not have as positive a reputation as its surrounding suburbs. You'll probably get more specific answers on the general Pennsylvania forum.

I used to live in Wyomissing, which is essentially Reading. I can certainly answer any questions.

Not so much a question. lol

I live in Reading and am trying to find if anyone else here is also from Reading.

Probably should have phrased it better.

Hi there,

I live in a new establishment I'd say about 3 or so miles north of reading, just off of 61. I moved out here about 2 years ago from North Catasauqua in Lehigh bordering Northampton, and before that I was a New York City resodent. It's hard to meet people from my position and I don't like reading much because I have no friends out here =) just throwing that out here lol.
