City - Swarthmore

Swarthmore is a small but quietly compelling Delaware County borough where Quaker history, collegiate energy, and easy Philadelphia access all share the same two square miles. Rooted in a Quaker settlement dating to the late 1600s, the borough grew into a distinct community after Swarthmore College was founded in 1864, and that institution still shapes the character of daily life here. The college's 425-acre Scott Arboretum doubles as the borough's green heart, drawing walkers and nature lovers through wooded trails year-round.

Downtown Swarthmore, known locally as "The Ville," offers a walkable stretch of independently owned shops and a SEPTA regional rail station that puts Center City Philadelphia within a reasonable commute. The borough also hosts a Thursday Night Live summer concert series and an annual Jumble Sale through the Swarthmore Friends Meeting that draws crowds from well beyond the borough limits.
