What would you guys say the chances are of West Philly "expanding" into Havertown in the next 20 years or so? Is Upper Darby a large enough buffer?

As the informal defintion of University City eventually pushes westward, there is the likelihood that long-time West Philly residents will go in the same direction across the city border. Said residents have already been settling into Darby, Yeadon, and Upper Darby and will probably continue to do so. I'm under the impression that there are a lot of long-timers in Havertown; if they continue to pass down their homes to the next generation or their friends, I wouldn't expect much significant change.
