This list is not completely legit,..

Moorestown is not 15 minutes away in real-time, unless under absolutely ideal conditions. it is behind traffic and the bridge to Philly is currently (read for two years) washed out, and these roads are full fo the kind of blind corners you would never want to see snow on. Did I mention these back roads to philly DO NOT get snow plowed daily.. It's not bad, but it is not close to a hospital, not close to philly, (and the on ramp to the highway is hidden, which causes many accidents). Besides, i love my new place~~!~ who's comin to visit?

as far as NJ, its not bad, but I love being in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania for tax and work at home breaks, we are as close as possible to not pay legal fees. We also got three malls within thirty minutes (one within 10) resturants, and a religious supply Super store, a dunkin donuts. and less than three violent crimes per year... and we got public transit on lock.

I am actually about 15 minutes shy of there, but in a far better town, a mile from the highway,.. and I got only 1 hour to Dorney Park, which is one of the best amusement parks I have ever seen.

and we are home to the...

Museum of Unnatural Mystery, Bensalem, Pa.
--A slightly bizarre science museum, with exhibits for the whole family
--Look at scientific explanations for unidentified flying objects and sea monsters, among other things

Crime:

445 robberies in the last 5 years. :shock: (with that many malls nearby, and people ALL up in nice houses)
1 murder in the last three years. :roll: (and the dude didn't even run...)

and me,.. a grizzled vet from Oak-town Killa-fornia. :twisted:
