Long & Foster Living
Philadelphia, PA

Philadelphia, with its population of close to 1.5 million, is the second most populous city on the East Coast and the fifth most populous city in the nation. Originally laid out in a grid, the city’s north-south streets are numbered in ascending order starting from the Delaware River, whereas many of its east-west streets are named after trees. Today, the urban landscape of Philadelphia real estate is broken up by Fairmount Park, a 9,100-acre municipal park that includes both the 4,100-acre park proper as well as all 65 city parks.

Much of the city’s rich colonial history is still visible in the architecture that characterizes Philadelphia real estate. Row houses feature prominently in Philadelphia’s many neighborhoods, with some of the oldest located in Society Hill. University City, another neighborhood located on Philadelphia real estate, is home to the 269-acre campus of the University of Pennsylvania.

The ethnic diversity of Philadelphia real estate owners is evident in the city’s numerous cultural events and its broad mix of international cuisine. Popular districts like Rittenhouse Row and the Italian Market in South Philadelphia are packed with a wide variety of dining establishments, offering Philadelphia real estate owners and visitors alike everything from authentic Philly cheese-steaks to gelato. From the many museums and art galleries that call Philadelphia real estate home to its vibrant nightlife, Philadelphia embodies the excitement of big-city living.
