The people in my community are very sociability and friendly, they are always willing to help, the maintenance of the houses and streets, and the cleanliness that prevails is part of the values of its restaurants, the shopping centers are close and the buses, although they are very little used once pass every hour of the day. The atmosphere that prevails is product of the quality life that each resident has,at any time it can see how older people go on their dailie walks, even residents from other area meet in the streets to talk because here you always breathe an air of tranquility absent of envy, or external dangers since the police patrol the neighborhood

Everyone respects each other. It's quiet & well kept. The school district is great. I feel like it's a safe & great township to raise my kids in.

Very educated people live in my neighborhood, most of them are descendants of Hebrews, there are also Afro-American people, and in a smaller number there are Asians and Latinos. The understanding and respect that exists between all of us creates an atmosphere of harmony and peace. Lower Merion is a peaceful area full of an atmosphere of freshness formed by the cool atmosphere that prevails by the green areas and the large trees and streams, I have a habit of walking one hour a day, either in the morning or in the afternoon and Neighbors say hello, I stop to have a conversation with them and we talk about different topics, be it art, science or simply everyday life. I believe that this is the kind of neighborhood where a lot of people want our children to live, as Lower Merion's educational system is among the best in the United States.
