New Hope is consistently highly ranked for its pleasant walkability, cultural attractions including the Bucks County Playhouse and the annual Oscar & Hammerstein film festival, top-rated school district including #3 ranking of Best High Schools for STEM in Bucks County, and recently voted one of the most charming towns to visit in Bucks County by Philadelphia Magazine.
