![]() "Haddonfield-lite" definitely describes Heights. I also believe that of the three: Haddon Township, Haddon Heights and Collingswood Heights has the highest property taxes and the least variety in housing, with most of the houses being much older than what you find in Haddon Township. That basically takes Haddon Heights out of the consideration given that "downtown and PATCO" is something a lot of people are placing even above school system. I think some of it has to do with what PHL_SJ said in that many people on the board ask for/want the more vibrant downtown and easy PATCO access. You are right that Haddon Heights is sort of considered an "also ran". Cherry Hill is usually the default, because there's a little bit of everything except a full-blown downtown. ![]() I find it odd that on this board the comparisons are always Haddon Twp & Collingswood. I just find it odd that there is little to no interest in Haddon Heights.įor years Haddon Heights & Haddon Twp were considered comparable, sort of Haddonfield-lite. On this board, people like to point out the lack of a PATCO station, but everyone who I know who lives there doesn't care, because there's a bus link to it. ![]() Haddon Heights has a much better high school than Collingswood & has a downtown. ![]() We missed the downtown, but there are several readily available & the mall functions as the downtown for the kids. My family moved to Cherry Hill from a Midwestern city. ![]() maybe folks have different ways of looking at things. They are grouped in more for the lifestyle, than the comparable school systems. I believe people compare Collingswood and Haddon Twp because of the proximity to active main streets (Haddon Ave and Kings). Cherry Hill is a suburb (a nice one!) but the lack of main street is a factor for young families that are moving from cities. I think it's fair to say that city dwellers, like my wife and I, like having amenities within walking distance and not being car dependent to do everything. ![]()
