Trenton's a bit busy for you. Philadelphia is expensive and too far from work. So where are you going to live?
 

Consider Morrisville, PA. We're in green, peaceful, historic Bucks County, a hop across the river from Trenton, a short drive from Philadelphia, and with easy access to New York trains.
 

Should you want to go anywhere else, that is. But you might want to stick close to home, because while Morrisville is a small town, we're within striking distance of the region's best arts and culture. There's always something that will feed your heart and your head here, and it happens in a landscape that has inspired artists for centuries.
