Set in Montgomery County just north of Philadelphia, it’s an easy commute by Regional Rail, with neighborhood stations and fast access to major routes. Daily life hums along Old York Road’s eateries and local shops, while parks, playgrounds, and year-round programs are supported by responsive services from Abington Township.
Families are drawn to the strong academics, arts, and athletics offered by the Abington School District, which anchors community pride and extracurricular opportunities. Higher education is right in town at Penn State Abington, adding cultural events, trails, and a collegiate buzz to the local scene. Healthcare needs are covered by Jefferson Abington Hospital, a regional leader in emergency and specialty care. On weekends, residents unwind at expansive Alverthorpe Park, browse galleries and take classes at the creative hub of the Abington Art Center, or tap into story times, STEM programs, and quiet study spaces at the Abington Township Public Library.
From stone colonials and post-war capes to newer townhomes, Abington offers a range of homes on leafy streets and in walkable pockets near transit, schools, and parks.
