Why Live in Germantown

Germantown, a historic neighborhood in Philadelphia, was founded by German families in 1683 and has a rich history, including its role in the Revolutionary War and the antislavery movement. The Cliveden estate and the Johnson House, now a museum, are notable historical landmarks. The neighborhood features charming older homes, including Victorian-era estates with elaborate stonework, Dutch Colonial twins, and traditional Philadelphia rowhomes from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Most homes have small yards and require street parking. Vernon Park, known as the "Emerald of Germantown," offers a historic home, monuments, paved walkways, a playground, and hosts events like the Fall Community Bazaar & Flea Market. Germantown Avenue is the main commercial area with local shops and restaurants, including Uncle Bobbie’s Coffee & Books, Deke’s Barbecue, The Nile Café, and Attic Brewing Company. Local businesses like A&N House of Produce and Merzbacher’s bakery highlight the neighborhood's community spirit. Germantown has convenient transportation options through SEPTA, with buses and two commuter rail lines providing access to surrounding areas and Center City, which is about 8 miles away. The neighborhood is safer than the national average, making it a practical choice for potential home buyers.
