Suburban living and a close-knit feel in Village Green-Green Ridge
The Village Green-Green Ridge community is home to peaceful suburban streets with easy access to shopping centers, parks and public transportation. Around 25 miles from downtown Philadelphia, the community lies in the heart of Aston Township providing walkable streets away from the active city center. “It’s a very tight knit community where neighbors know one another,” says Anna Lee, a Village Green-Green Ridge resident and associate broker with Long & Foster Real Estate. “I was drawn here because of the community’s strong roots. Once people move here, they tend to stick around, so you end up getting to know everyone. I own a home here, as do my daughter and granddaughter.”
