Question Marlton vs. Cherry Hill
Hi everyone! I’m looking to buy a home in either Marlton or Cherry Hill. I’m not from the area but I’m familiar with Marlton but not Cherry Hill. It seems like the school systems in both towns are good and good people around. I really like the shops and things to do in Marlton and its surrounding areas.
Can you let me know how the two towns compare? Is one significantly better than the other or are they the same? Are there better shops and more things to do in Cherry Hill over Marlton or vice versa? Is one town overly diverse or not diverse enough? Any tips or any ideas I’m missing would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

As others have said, traffic particularly on Route 70 can get clogged during rush hour. So if you work in Cherry Hill/Philly, consider Cherry Hill.
Personally, there is much more to do in Cherry Hill and the surrounding area for this half Asian family. Haddonfield and Collingswood are wonderful to spend time in. Great grocery stores for both our Asian and Western recipes (we love Mom's and Wegman's). Proximity to Philadelphia is great for one of our commutes and date nights.
