Flying Hills balances highway proximity with green surroundings
The community of Flying Hills fills a patch of land between Pennsylvania Route 10 and Interstate 176, but residents have views of rolling fairways and leafy tree canopies rather than asphalt and passing cars. The Flying Hills Golf Course and thick tree lines buffer the planned community south of Reading from the two roadways on either side of it. “It’s a great commuter neighborhood, but you don’t feel like you’re on the highway,” says Emily Gordon, a Realtor with Keller Williams Platinum Realty and a top seller in the community. In addition to a balance of commuter convenience and natural landscape, Flying Hills stands out for its variety of housing. That enables many residents to move multiple times without leaving the community, Gordon says. “If they start off in an apartment, they’re looking for a townhouse or a single-family home there after a few years.”

Housing types for different lifestyles, price points
Multiple developments were built in Flying Hills between the 1970s and ‘90s. They include apartment complexes, condo communities, rows of brick townhouses and a single-family subdivision of ranch homes and Colonial-inspired new traditional houses. Some homes have views of the Flying Hills Golf Course, while others back up to thickets of trees. Condo prices range from $100,000 to $215,000, while townhouses are usually priced between $200,000 and $300,000. Single-family prices vary from the high $300,000s to the mid-$400,000s, though a house overlooking the course can fetch more than $500,000. All residents pay dues to the Flying Hills Trust, Gordon says. “They do a lot of the overall maintenance of the shared properties, like the playgrounds.” However, residents may pay additional dues to their specific communities, such as condo association fees. Flying Hills receives a CAP Index Crime Score of 2 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.

Three highways help commuters
One feature about Flying Hills that stands out to homebuyers is its location along Interstate 176, Gordon says. “It gets you to the Pennsylvania Turnpike or Route 422 quickly.” Gordon says it’s not uncommon for people to commute to Philadelphia, a pattern that’s become more common since the COVID-19 pandemic. Some people no longer work from an office five days a week, so they choose to live farther from the city, she says. The drive to Philadelphia takes one to two hours, though cities in the western Philadelphia suburbs are closer to Flying Hills.
