Royersford, PA
Can or can't one return home - again? -
7/2/2007 Royersford was my native town, I grew up there. I was there when the population was less than 4,000, and when the businesses would close at 6 to 8 pm every night; I was a part of the community when the entire school system (Spring-Ford) had fewer students then the ninth grade now has. Wow!
I was both stunned and amazed at the groth which has happened since I relocated to Ohio. There has been both change and consistency in Royersford. Unlike many towns which have experienced rapid growth, Royersford's character seems to have remined stable over the years, mainly because of family values, an intimate and friendly atmosphere, and neighborhoods that have a solid community founding.
Although I chose to move to a smaller and more intimate community (Richwood, Ohio) then Royersford is, I miss my old hometown, and I always look forward to visiting when I have the opportunity.

Small Town Hospitality and Friendliness -
7/2/2007 I grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania, a place called Royersford. Richwood is the closest place I have found which compares favorably to my native town of Royersford.
Richwood is intimate enough so that almost everyone knows everyone else, friendly enough so that most people help one another through day to day existance, and compassionate enough that we respect one anothers privacy and individual differences.
There is room here in Richwood to freely move about, and to grow in body, mind, and spirit. I am proud to call Richwood my home town!
