Location: Northeast Philadelphia is 90 minutes from NYC, 2 hours to Baltimore, and just over 1 hour to Lakewood. Taking a train to New York? Drive 30 minutes to Trenton Station, and hop onto a train for a 50-minute ride to NYC Penn Station. This is a perfect location if you want to live close to the NYC metro area but are looking for the out-of-town feel!

Affordability: Rent a 2-3 bedroom home for $1,500-2,000/month with full amenities, including washer/dryer, easy parking, and private entrance. Buy a house for $350K with just $3,000 in property taxes.

Wondering how to afford yeshiva tuition? Our Day school tuition packages will astonish you, due to Pennsylvania State Private School Tax Credits. The cost of living is a small fraction of the NYC metro area. Live here, work less, and enjoy what truly matters in life more.
