IMHO I believe the locals use local newspapers more than Craigslist to advertise. Are you making a trip there before you move? There is a weekly newspaper called The Public Spirit and a daily newspaper called The Intellegencer that most local people use to advertise. Also, try phillyburbs.com.
I've lived in this area on and off for the past 35 years and know it pretty well. Why not rent a condo or townhome right in Horsham? There are a lot of them there. I worked in Horsham myself for many years and most of the people I worked with lived in the immediate area or in the surrounding communities going north up to Doylestown. Warrington, Chalfont, Buckingham, Doylestown, Montgomeryville, North Wales and Lansdale. These communities are where a lot of the folks in Willow Grove, Abington, Roslyn areas "move up" to. The areas near Abington are older and tend to have more spotty neighborhoods with more crime because it's very close to Philadelphia. This is why the rent is cheaper in these areas. Don't get me wrong though there are some lovely areas surrounding Abington.
Good luck in your search and feel free to PM me if you want any other information.
