A Village Within a City 
If you're looking for a small town, "village"
atmosphere with access to all the cultural, historic and
recreational experiences of a large city, consider the quaint
community of Chestnut Hill, a neighborhood of Philadelphia.
A strong sense of community pride, a charming historic
shopping area with cobblestone streets and an old-fashioned
sense of caring about friends and neighbors make Chestnut Hill
a very special place to work and live.
The Philadelphia Inquirer has highlighted Chestnut Hill as
an "ideal place to live." Former police commissioner
John Timoney was quoted as saying Chestnut Hill is "as
safe as any neighborhood you're going to find in the
country." For more information on the community, visit Chestnut Hill's website.
Recreation, Culture and Entertainment
 Nestled
in the northwest corner of Philadelphia, a few blocks from the
Montgomery County line, this attractive area offers ready
access to the Pocono mountains and New Jersey beaches.
Chestnut Hill is a short distance from center city
Philadelphia where you will find fine dining, a nationally
renowned orchestra, world-class museums, professional theaters
and sports teams. Recreational and sporting activities abound.
Rowing on the Schuylkill River, mountain biking along the
Wissahickon Creek and strolling in Fairmount Park are some of
the many activities our residents enjoy.
The Best of Both Worlds
 This
unique community offers residents the best of both worlds - a
lovely, suburban environment within an exciting major
metropolitan area.
