About
Known as Philadelphia’s Garden District and named “one of the top seven urban enclaves in the country” by Forbes.com, Chestnut Hill is one of the greenest and most vibrant communities in the country.
The neighborhood features a diverse array of housing – combining rental apartments and moderate to high-end real estate – within a community that is known for its distinctive history, public parks, a beloved Philadelphia museum, and a world-renown arboretum. The vibrant shopping district forms the heart of the walkable neighborhood and offers a green-conscious lifestyle in which residents can “keep it on the hill” to keep their carbon footprint small by shopping local at the many unique and independent Philadelphia businesses. Many area restaurants and bakeries support local farmers and many of the shops are proud to offer Philadelphia-made goods.
