Great living situation but expensive

If you live here it's a lot easier to drive to school (it's like a 20 minute walk to the nearest PATCO station). There is a garage a block away but the building also offers parking. You'll end up spending around $250 a month. The apartment is located right near 676 so I usually get to school in under 10 minutes. The amenities are amazing including the gym. It's a very quiet neighborhood and the walls have very good sound insulation. There are a decent amount of food options near it and there is also a Giant a block away for grocery shopping.

Great

It has a lot of amenities. Gym is "free" if you are renting here. Its a 15-20 minute commute if you take the Broad Street line.

Nice experience besides commute

Newly built apartment, beautiful amenities, very clean, just an annoying commute and a bit small for the price (only ~350 square ft studio)

Great Apartment, Nice Amenities

Apartments are recently renovated and offer a lot of space with nice appliances. The location in particular is nice, right in Spring Garden, off the Broad Street Line. The gym has 3 spaces, and the bottom floor of the building has a ton of lovely space to study in.

Very nice besides commute

I love the apartment. Great amenities, super modern, haven't seen a single bug (which is very important to me). Phase 2 was just built this year. Only downside is the commute. Have to take the sub then the trolley every day. Will be moving closer next year

Hamilton Review

I've lived here for two and a half years now and it has been an enjoyable experience. The apartment is spacious with separate bathrooms for me and my roommate. The facility is secure and has a very nice and spacious common area with a gym as well as an outdoor space.

Fairmount Reviews

53 reviews
Very quaint, quiet neighborhood. Hear some kids in the morning playing in the street in the summer but that's about it. Lots of people walking dogs. The kind of people who will shovel your sidewalk when it snows without you asking. Really great crowd around here with good parks, I have always felt safe with the exception of a few areas north of where I live.
I couldn’t love my neighborhood more! Close to center city but outside the hustle. Next to the art museums and park. Wonderful neighbors, great local businesses, and a strong sense of community.
Love my neighborhood, its a bit quiet but still has tons of places to eat and drink.
When I first moved to Philadelphia (from out of state) I lived in a building in Center City because I wanted the central location closer to non-school activities and thought it might be safer. Now that I've moved, I vastly prefer Fairmount/Spring Garden. CC, especially where I lived, was very loud. Groceries can be a bit of a pain because I don't have a car (although this is improved now that there is a new Trader Joe's ~5 blocks away on Arch and a new CVS at Spring Garden!) I think it is about pretty much as safe as CC - fewer people around, which can go either way, but more residential and in a really beautiful area especially west of Broad St. Compared to CC there isn't quite as much to do, but there are still some bars and restaurants and there are relatively close coffee shops to study at if that's your thing. Lots of other students live in the area as well.
Fairmount is an excellent area to live in. It is walking distance to the Schuylkill trail, great for biking to work, exercising or relaxing by the river. The area has great restaurants, easy-to-find parking and an excellent massive Whole Foods with 4 restaurants inside. It is also very easy to walk to downtown Philly (15-40 min walk for most of Center City and University City).
Pros: close-knit neighborhood where residents look out for each other and know each others' names, lots of families and students, low noise, walkable to Girard and Fairmount BSL stops, close to Fairmount Ave shops and restaurants, overall v. safe feel

Cons: be careful and use common sense walking around Girard and Broad at night - some blocks are sketchier than others
The Fairmount area is a great place to live. It is close to a lot of the city's attractions and art, and equally close to some great outdoor space. The neighborhood is generally pretty quiet, and parking is easier than in Center City. There are a lot of coffee shops, restaurants, and pubs within easy walking distance. There are a lot of neighborhood events, especially in the summer, that are great to attend. The major downfall (if you see it that way) is the city run events that happen at the art museum from time to time. These really close down the neighborhood and make parking and driving really hard. But, they are usually fun to attend or spectate.
I absolutely loves the location. Easy walk to work, good food options ranging from fine dining to late-night pizza to bars. It's close to a Whole Foods and a local family owned market called Kleins. Unfortunately, Fairmount is only assessable by bus. City Hall and 30th Street Station is a 30 minute walk away if you need to take the MFL or Regional Rail lines.
