Hey guys. I'm 26 years old, work remotely in tech sales. I used to live in Boston, but last summer I moved back in with my parents in Exton PA after a breakup and wanting to reset. Living with family has been great as far as saving up money, but it doesn't seem like there's a whole lot going on this far out from the city. Plus I'm pretty far left and the dating apps are largely conservatives out here.
I was thinking of moving closer to or into the city while I'm still young to maybe get a bit of city life and perhaps meet people along the way. I know that the city itself though has an extra tax, so I'm not sure if it's silly to live there when I work from home and can live anywhere. At the same time, I don't really know a lot about the surrounding neighborhoods or if there's anywhere else nearby that's a good fit for people in their 20's. So basically I was hoping some here could provide guidance and help me figure out which neighborhoods in or around philly are good for my situation.
