Germantown
Germantown and Chelten Avenues define this community’s commercial center. Residents actively support the businesses that can be found along these commercial strips, and choice commercial properties are available at affordable rates. Many are mixed-use retail and residential properties allowing owners to reduce expenses or realize added income through rentals.
Germantown’s accessibility is a major attraction for businesses and residents alike. All of the community is within a ten-minute walk to one of the three train stations that provide service to Center City Philadelphia and the surrounding region. Additionally, nine bus routes offer increased mobility to more specific locations throughout the region. These options not only makes it easy for residents to commute regularly into Philadelphia, but also bring a steady stream of customers into the community who are drawn by its retail offering and historic attractions.
The Greater Germantown Business Association is actively guiding the community’s economic growth. Its services help to cultivate and sustain established and emerging businesses on and near the Germantown Avenue Business corridor.
SEPTA’s Trenton Regional Rail Line provides connections to trains and transit options that will take you to New York City.
