Jenkintown’s small size supports a strong sense of community
At less than a square mile in size, the tiny Jenkintown holds considerable weight in the hearts of those who call this borough home. "Jenkintown is a walkable town with a close community of people. We have our own public school system and festivals in the Townsquare," says Sean Ryan, a Jenkintown local and Realtor with Keller Williams Real Estate. Aside from the commercial district on Old York Road, the neighborhood is primarily residential.

Local schools offer small class sizes and strong academics
The School District of Jenkintown serves the young minds of the community and is considered one of the top 10 districts in Montgomery County, according to Niche. "The borough doesn't have a busing system because the students walk to school," Ryan says. In the morning, young residents may attend Jenkintown Elementary until the end of sixth grade. The remaining students may spend the school day at Jenkintown Middle/High, promising an 11 to 1 student-to-teacher ratio, lower than the national average of 17 to 1. Both schools earned overall A grades on Niche. Parents may also choose the private, faith-based option, Immaculate Conception BVM, located on West Avenue.
