The best places to live in Philadelphia

Christine Kopaczewski

• hiladelphia has gone from an underdog to the newest "it" city.
• With culinary hotspots, a rich historical background, and affordable housing, it's easy to see why Millennials and entrepreneurs are flooding to Philadelphia.
• If you're looking to make the move, here are the best neighborhoods in Philadelphia.

====================

1. Fairmount

2. Manayunk

3. Fishtown

4. Old City

5. Ardmore - Ardmore is technically in the suburbs, but like if the suburbs went on a year abroad and came back with cooler taste in music and clothes and had a sudden penchant for exotic food and drink.

Ardmore is seriously cool. It's home to the renowned Tired Hands Brewery, which is chock full of young and trendy professionals any night of the week. It’s also a shopaholic’s dream. There's all the major chains like DSW, Gap, Lululemon, as well as small-town boutiques to scour for one-of-a-kind pieces.

The music scene is great, and it's still an easy commuting distance to the city. If you're looking for a little more space, it’s a nice place to settle into a single home and stay a while.
