What drew you to West Reading?
We first purchased the property in West Reading to open my jewelry business, MADE Jewelry Boutique & Studio. I was originally drawn to the diverse mix of business and aesthetics of Penn Ave. Through a wild twist of events, we ended up living in the apartment above the shop a few years ago. It’s the people and a strong sense of community that have kept us living here.

What’s your favorite thing about living in Greater Reading?
The diversity of people and the close proximity to major cities.

Describe you neighborhood in five words.
Energetic, creative, safe, walkable and fun!

Share a hidden gem of Greater Reading.
Our family’s favorite hidden gem of Greater Reading  is The Reading Museum. It’s easy to spend the day taking in the exhibits and walking the beautiful grounds.

Greater Reading has it all! It is just as easy to experience an elevated evening of fine food and culture as it is to access a world class nature trail.
