Still a great school but not what it was in late 70’s/early 80’s. There was a time period when it was off the charts. Most of the homes were built in the 60’s and early 70’s. Our schools were amazing and people from Philly moved there to raise their families there. Many of our parents were children of immigrants and first generation college graduates. Muhammed Ali actually moved there during the peak of his career. He used to go out jogging and the kids would run next to him. MIchael Milliken rented a house a block away from mine when he went to Wharton. While not a rocket scientist Orel Hershiser graduated with my sister (he actually preferred ice hockey over baseball at the time). Most of the Phillies, Eagles, Flyers and Sixers lived in or around there. The homes were nice but not really spectacular. It was the people that made it special.
Alot of the people I graduated with who stayed in the area moved to newer or wealthier towns. Many have moved out of the area altogether.
