ARDMORE, Pa. - July 29, 2010 (WPVI) -- Over the past six weeks, there's been over 23 residential burglaries in Cheltenham and 32 in Lower Merion over the past 2 months.
It's an avalanche of suburban crime that has frustrated the police and rattled residents.
When crimes happen in "Philadelphia" they're happening in a big area with 1.5 million people that people have some awareness of. When they happen in "Lower Merion" they don't really register.
