Wallingford blends tree-lined streets, historic architecture, and everyday convenience into a community that feels easy to live in and easy to love. Tucked in delaware county between Swarthmore, Media, and Rose Valley, it offers a quick ride to Philadelphia via SEPTA’s Media/Wawa Line, with the Wallingford Station detailed by SEPTA. Local streets connect to the Blue Route for simple regional commuting.
Families prize the schools in the highly regarded Wallingford-Swarthmore School District, where students benefit from strong academics, arts, and athletics. Culture thrives at the Community Arts Center, a hub for classes, exhibitions, and community events set in a picturesque 19th-century estate. Book lovers gravitate to the Helen Kate Furness Free Library, while nature seekers explore the riverside paths of the Taylor Arboretum at Widener University and the trails, ballfields, and picnic groves of Smedley Park. Civic life is active too, with programs and updates from Nether Providence Township keeping residents connected.
From stone colonials to mid-century homes, housing here offers character and leafy yards, and weekends can be as full as you’d like—gallery openings, youth sports, trail runs, or dinner in nearby boroughs.
