i've lived in newtown square just down the road from the high school for about 10 years. you will love it here!! the property taxes are the lowest in the county. excellent schools! though it's not a cheap place to live, you can probably find a place to rent for 1500, but most of the homes in the area go for 250,000 or more. so definately do some looking around first.
