@ Meleager91:
Hi! I saw this edit which stated that the school is in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. While the mailing address says "Langhorne, PA", the school is not physically in Langhorne. It's actually in Middletown Township. Therefore having the article saying the school is in Langhorne would be misleading.
Since it's been established that US postal address "city names" are sometimes misleading, the way to determine where a place really is is to compare the physical location to a map of the township. This is the map of Middletown Township, Bucks County on the US Census Bureau. The PDF document's page 4 matches with the physical location.
The general public has misconceptions of where places really are in the US, and these articles should say where places are located. I know that many members of the public are confused by this, so I hope this explains why I restored the location as Middletown Township.
