Welcome to King of Prussia, a suburban community 15 miles northwest of Philadelphia. What began as an 18th-century crossroads has evolved into one of the region's most sought-after locations. The King of Prussia Mall, the third-largest shopping complex in the United States, anchors the area with over 450 stores and 40 restaurants. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate Valley Forge National Historical Park's more than 20 miles of trails for hiking and cycling, while history enthusiasts can explore the area's Revolutionary War sites.

King of Prussia's neighborhoods feature diverse housing options. The Village at Valley Forge development combines residential spaces with retail destinations, while the King of Prussia Town Center offers a walkable community hub anchored by Wegmans. The community's name originated from a colonial-era tavern that honored King Frederick the Great of Prussia - the same tavern where George Washington stopped on Thanksgiving Day in 1777 while the Continental Army was encamped nearby. Four major highways and multiple SEPTA bus routes connect residents to Philadelphia and surrounding areas, balancing accessibility with suburban living.
