Oxford is a suburban borough between three major metro areas
Surrounded by farmland, Oxford is a 6,000-population borough. Once a busy railroad stop off, the area still serves as an important intersection, with several highways converging on the way to Philadelphia, Baltimore and Delaware. Known for its historical houses, the area is still growing, with new construction and subdivisions being developed well into 2025. Well-rated schools, ample shopping and local festivities also attract new homeowners to the area.
Just outside of Oxford’s downtown, you’ll find many family farms.
