Folsom pairs small-town ease with big-city access. Set in Delaware County, the community frames everyday life around tree-lined blocks, neighborhood playgrounds, and the bustle of MacDade Boulevard’s diners and shops. Commuters appreciate swift connections to I‑95 and the Blue Route, plus quick drives to Philadelphia’s universities, hospitals, and cultural venues.
Families are served by the well-regarded Ridley School District, with local standouts such as Ridley High School on Morton Avenue and Grace Park Elementary offering rich academics, arts, and athletics. Youth sports and marching band traditions knit the town together on Friday nights.
Civic life is active, centered on Ridley Township programs, seasonal festivals, and the Ridley Township Public Library’s classes and storytimes. Outdoor lovers head a few miles north to the John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge at Tinicum for boardwalk strolls, kayaking, and spectacular birding during migration.
Regional Rail is close by at Ridley Park on the Wilmington/Newark Line or in Swarthmore on the Media/Wawa Line, and SEPTA buses run the MacDade corridor—making car-light living very doable. Housing ranges from tidy twins to classic single-family homes, often with porches that invite conversation and evening breezes.
