Fastest Growing City in the World Levittown Revealed
Lawrence Lader writes in January about Levittown, a new US community near Philadelphia 25 miles away. Homes began a year ago with prices around 90 dollars, attracting veterans with down payments of 509 dollars and monthly payments of 62 dollars. The town’s rapid rise drew 50 000 visitors to sales when first opened, and by opening day 2 000 000 dollars worth of homes were sold. The pioneer aura and unplanted yards define early residents, who keep floors clean by removing shoes before entering.
