How much is your current rent/mortgage?

We live in Queens (1675/month) but our rent is not the norm; we have a cheap place, lol—we’d just love 2k or less if possible. From what I can tell, major parts of PA will be OK except like center city and some of the most expensive parts. And of course less would be great, but we are open—we just want a nice place we can stay in for a long while.

You can find a rental for <2k in Port Richmond. You wanna be east of Aramingo. The farther east the better.

If you want less than 2K for more than 1 bedroom you need to consider S. Philly, North and West Philly, East Falls, Mount Airy, maybe Manayunk. $1675 might get you a 1 bedroom with a private landlord in Washington Sq. or Queen Village. You'll need a car for East Falls, Mount Airy or Manayunk.

Would you be getting jobs in Philly or WFH with NYC jobs?
