First in Bensalem from 1955 to 1965 and then New Hope followed by Doylestown until adulthood. It was always conservative but interestingly the Peace Fair took place in Levittown I believe just as Vietnam War started to escalate and there was always a somewhat liberal bastion here and there of right-thinking individuals, often Jewish communities in Lower Bucks. If you want to read some interesting material, Google Bryn Gweled and Concord Park both in Bucks. Fascinating reading.
