Love it here 5 rating By Anonymous ( Jul 07, 2022) From the awesome mall to town center to valley forge park, you can get everything here. It’s an amazing place to live, shop and dine. Modern architecture throughout town center and centrally located to Philly and all other major attractions. ...Read More Read Less
Largest Mall on the East Coast! 3 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) Wow! King of Prussia is a wonderful place to live! I love the mall being within a 5 minute drive of my house. Anything I can possibly want at the top name stores I can pick up after work or even at lunch.

Lots of larger corporations are located in King of Prussia with Lockheed M ...Read More artin having a large presence. Philadelphia is only 20 miles down one road so job opportunities are abundant! Whatever you do, a job is waiting for you.

Cost of living is a bit higher than I anticipated due to the convenient location to the PA Turnpike and Philadelphia so expect to pay a bit more for a nicer place.

Traffic can be heavy at times: morning rush hours, afternoon rush hours, and of course, Holidays due to the mall. I know that can be annoying at times yet I weight the trade off of having the option of so many stores at my fingertips. Read Less
