Jim's take on Blue Bell and Fort Washington
Corporate campuses and established neighborhoods near the Turnpike. Fort Washington has a station on the Lansdale/Doylestown Line, and plenty of people here work right in the area.

Jim's tip. Local income tax can swing more than you’d think. Most of the county charges 1%. Lower Merion and Upper Merion charge residents 0%, and Cheltenham is 1.5%. On $200,000 of wages, that’s the difference between $0 and $3,000 a year. A 0% town can still mean paying the rate where you work.
