The town of Brookhaven is a quiet, older residential community full of cape cods and bungalows and very tidy yards.   Most of the houses were built in the 1950s.   The town has a crime rate below the national average and seems to be a pleasant place.  A new Harrods Casino has opened in nearby Chester, and Philadelphia, with its history, restaurants and cultural amenities, is just 20 minutes north.

A bit of Brookhaven trivia:  a home on a road named Dutton Mill Road is rumored to have some of the pirate Blackbeard's treasure buried in the backyard.  The home's owner, as of this writing, has confirmed with a metal detector the presence of metal objects, but he has so far refused, citing superstition and curses and such, to dig up the yard.   Neighbors continue to keep an eye on him.
