Ok, then Conshohocken is my final and only choice. Thanks!

Conshohocken had a major fire in one of the largest rental communities last year and many residents were displaced so the rental market may be pretty tight there and anyplace close by while they are rebuilding.

errr.... Thanks for the information.
I need to think about West Norriston 19403. Though the town next to it, Norristown has a very high crime index, West Norriston is safe. Any ideas about West Norriston ? ?

I called my car insurance company, for address of West Norriston is $697/half year, for Plymouth Meeting $780, for KOP $734, for Bridgeport and Conshohocken is 780. That confirmed with the crime report on this site for each city.

West Norriton is a little quieter, less crowded and more suburban than the other choices because it is a little further from the city, but not by much.. Norristown is a bad area but all these other towns around it are just fine, typical, family oriented suburbia. It may depend on finding the apartment you like rather than which town since they are pretty much all the same. I would still try K of P first.

actually there are some decent nightlife options and apartments with a norristown address so I wouldn't write norristown off completely. if you see a new complex with a norristown address it's probably fine, even if it's on the eastern edge of norristown. Kop is an ioption, but pretty boring place to live. the residential areas are heavily family oriented with some corny apt complex scattered about. it's really not a great place to live for someone in their 20's. I'd reconsider, say, wayne.
