Philadelphia’s West Oak Lane community is a vibrant and historic neighborhood on the north end of the city. Vintage townhomes line many of the neighborhood’s streets, but the local rental market features a diverse selection of apartments, condos, and single-family homes as well. Most of the neighborhood is residential, with a few cafes and small storefront businesses scattered throughout: low-key favorites like June’s Restaurant and Moonlight Cuisine keep the locals well-fed, day and night.
Just up Ogontz Avenue, you’ll find a much larger shopping district anchored by Cheltenham Mall as well as a diverse selection of dining options ranging from seafood to barbecue. Several public schools are positioned within walking distance of West Oak Lane, and both La Salle University and Gratz College are conveniently located nearby, making this neighborhood a great option for students, faculty, and staff members.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
