About the neighborhood
Somerset is a peaceful township characterized by its calm and quiet atmosphere. Most residences are single detached homes, primarily offering two- and three-bedroom options that provide ample living space. The majority of properties were constructed between the 1960s and 1980s, lending the neighborhood a sense of enduring charm and history. Convenient access to major highways allows for smooth commutes and easy travel by car, supported by ample parking availability. Educational choices include both public and private elementary and secondary schools nearby. Dining options are thoughtfully sprinkled throughout, complementing shopping needs accessible with short drives. This township presents a tranquil and convenient setting for living.

Characteristics
Transportation
The favored transportation option in Somerset is very often driving. It is very easy to find a parking spot, and most houses for sale are a reasonably short drive from the nearest highway, such as Pennsylvania Tpke. Getting around as a pedestrian is not very practical for residents in Somerset because meeting daily needs is difficult without a vehicle. Cycling is also challenging in Somerset because there are quite a few hills, and the bicycling network is rather limited.
Services
There are only a few high schools and primary schools in Somerset and accordingly they can be an extended pedestrian trip away. Residents have the choice between public and private schools at both the elementary and high school level. With respect to food, a fraction of house buyers in Somerset may be able to access the nearest supermarket as pedestrians, while others will have to turn to another means of transportation. There are also a few opportunities for those who value nearby restaurants.
Character
Somerset is a very good township to buy a home in for those who prefer a calm ambience. The noise levels in Somerset are very low, as the streets tend to be very tranquil.
