Wynnewood is located in a suburb west of Philadelphia, it is a small town, and is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, and college-educated neighbors who tend to support education; Wynnewood has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Wynnewood also appears to be attractive to some younger, educated professionals, who help shape the character of the town. Wynnewood is also home to many people who can be described as “urban sophisticates.” Urban sophisticates are people who are both educated and wealthy, and thus tend to be older, richer, and more established than young professionals. Overall this is a solid community, and many recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.
