Might be moving to PA

My husband just got a very nice job offer in Coatesville, PA and we are considering moving in the next month from Michigan. I currently work full-time as a structural engineer, but if/when we move I'd be staying at home or working part-time while I finish my college degree online. I am 25 years old and have an 18month old daughter. I have lived in Michigan my whole life and while I'm comfortable here, we're ready for something new. Are there any other moms around Coatesville, Exton, Reading, West Chester, etc. that would be willing to show us around and hang out? Thanks :)

I actually live in a suburb right outside Reading, Mount Penn but I have a Reading Zip Code. We have a nice 2BR apartment that is not too pricey.  It works for now, but we do want to eventually buy a house.

I'm in Douglassville which is right near Reading. When will you decide? Do you know where you are going to look for a house?

I've been looking at houses in Reading, Exton, Coatesville and even Lancaster. Rent is really high compared to what we pay in Michigan and I don't want to sacrifice safety to get a good deal. I'm still waiting for my husband to get the call.

Where in MI are you from?  I grew up in Flint, lived in Grand Blanc then Mt Morris before I moved here in 1999.  I do enjoy it here and would NEVER move back to MI!  I now live outside of Reading!  Let us know if you are moving for sure.  I have a 9 year old so not close in kids ages, but perfectly happy to help you find things to do in the area. 


I grew up in Marlette (I forgive you if you have never heard of the town haha), it's just about an hour North-east from Flint. I currently live in Oscoda and will definitely let you know if he gets the job :) We were supposed to hear from the recruiter yesterday, but maybe he will call today.
