I grew up in Bucks County Pennsylvania, in a little town that's energetic with lots of activities to participate in. It was a great place to grow up. I have awesome memories.The grounds and homes are beautiful with low amounts of bucolic areas. The last 20 years or so have had large amounts of growth in new home construction, shopping, and schools.

Bucks county is located close to Philadelphia so you can reach any cultural, shopping or sporting event easily by train or car. It's suburbia but a stones throw to the city and nightlife. Bucks County has quite a bit of historic value to Pennsylvania.

William Penn had a hand in naming Bucks county after Buckinghamshire, London, the county where he lived and his family was from.  Williams home, Pennsbury Manor, is in Bucks. George Washington set across to Trenton in 1776 from now Washington Crossings. The Delaware river runs through Bucks County providing fishing and water activities. For nature lovers this county hosts 6 state parks.

Bucks County has more then a few colleges to go to as well as excellent public and private schools.

If you are looking for a family area, with options to hit the city this county has what you are looking for.
