Kensington is an artistic neighborhood in Philadelphia that offers unique rentals, partially due to the spacious studio and loft apartments available. There are also several affordable and modern townhomes for rent in town that attract families. You’ll find locals heading down Frankford Avenue to the artistic Fishtown neighborhood which is full of craft breweries and charming pubs. Check out Philadelphia Brewing Company or Memphis Taproom for some local brews. Try a cheese pie at Pizza Brain, which doubles as the nation’s only pizza museum, or chow down on bratwurst at Frankford Hall, a large, indoor German beer garden.
There are several stops on the area’s commuter rail line in Kensington, as well as plenty of bus routes to get to Center City, located less than five miles away, making this neighborhood a more affordable yet convenient option for in-city living.
