So i took a job with CVS Pharmacy in the Reading/Pottstown area, gonna be moving down there sometime in July probably. Anyone from down there that can give me the heads-up on good areas to live, bars, where the good meets are at, etc, please sound off

Reading = get your car stolen.

Streetracer1227 · 05-23-2009, 03:47 PM

not actually gonna be living in reading, but somewhere in the surrounding area...and i plan on buying an inconspicuous car for a daily as im going to be starting as a floater pharmacist so im gonna be driving, letting the car sit for 12 hours in the weather, driving home, repeating as necessary to make bank...toys only used for cruising and going to the store,bar, and Maple Grove

i'm from reading area, wyomissing is a nice place to live. lots of apartment complexes and such. a lot of people go to legends and 3rd and spruce as far as bars go. and captain's cove and beverly hills tavern. reading doesn't have a ton of meets, lots of ricers.

theres alot of rice in Scranton/Wilkes Barre too. I have some friends from school that are from down there and a few that re-located as well. I just need some bar buddies lol

wilkes university in wilkes-barre, about 2 hrs from philly/reading..i will be graduating in august...i knew a few people from usp, but they were before your time

I live in Reading and its not as bad as people make it. No worse than philly or any other city-city. As for cars getting stolen your fine unless you have a Honda. Don't really go to bars so i can't help you there. Are you looking to rent or buy ? Like someone else said Wyomssing is nice but if your working in reading and pottsown you may want to look at exeter....

A friend of mine just moved down there for work (pharmacist for CVS as well), she found an apartment in exeter, i dont know how big but she's payin a pretty high rent IMO...buy would be optimum, esp if i can find a place with a garage, but i may have to end up renting

93rx7r1 · 05-25-2009, 11:11 PM

The Exeter area would be the best for you. I'm sure you can find something. There are lots of places for rent or sale now a days. Mortgage > Rent IMO (you own something when all is said and done)

as long as you don't have a honda. your safe

hondas really aint my thing, the only time i would buy one would be a bone-ass stock civic just for a daily beater

I am from the reading area also just bought a house out there. Check out Legends and Captins Cove they are both good place. I am good friends with the owners so I am kind of biased. Not really sure where to tell you to live.
