So I’ve begun looking for apartments near Exton, Downingtown, and West Chester. This commute will end up being at most 10 miles one way instead of 42 miles like now. Plus I won’t have to spend $100/month on turnpike fees!

The transportation savings alone makes finding an apartment a good idea. But even more so is the commuting time. My current commute is about an hour one way. My new one will be at most 15-20 minutes one way.

That’s a pretty good incentive to move but the average rent costs are around $950-1100 for a 1 BR/1 Bath. Pretty steep but hopefully it will only be for 6-12 months.

I’m updating my pictures with the various places I’ve visited.
