Neighborhood

The neighborhood of Eastwick and Southwest Philadelphia form the southernmost section of the city, and one of the largest. This swath of suburban and industrial Philadelphia sits west of the Schuykill River, north of the Philadelphia International Airport, and south of Elmwood Park. The area is home to industrial parks and undeveloped cityscape, but there are also modern, urban apartment communities and long-standing houses for rent too.

One of Philadelphia’s best-kept secrets, the Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum, which houses one of the world’s best collections of vintage racecars, calls the Eastwick-Southwest Philadelphia area home. The museum houses over 65 of the world’s finest and historically significant cars, including classic and rare models from top names such as Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, Bugatti, Aston Martin, and Bentley. This section of Philly remains relatively affordable, and with Interstate 76 and 95 nearby it’s easy to commute into the heart of Philly in just minutes.
