City - Ridley Park

Located off the western shore of the Delaware River is the quaint family-friendly town of Ridley Park, Pennsylvania. This small borough gives its residents a quiet small-town escape from the surrounding larger cities. Thanks to being located near Interstate 95 and Interstate 476, travelling in and out of town is accessible. There is also access to railways that lead to both Philadelphia and Washington DC making Ridley Park a great area for commuters.

Adding to the borough’s “homey” atmosphere is the fact that the community of Ridley Park is very tight-knit. There are several community events and programs for people of all ages to get connected with one another. The many parks and the Athletic Club provide residents with several walking paths, field, and trails to explore, and the pinnacle of the town is the scenic Ridley Park Lake that people like to use to fish and relax.

Renters will find that there is a variety of housing choices to choose from.
