Countryside Neighborhoods
Greater Philadelphia
at its Most Serene
It doesn’t take much time in Greater Philadelphia’s Countryside neighborhoods to realize why New Jersey is nicknamed the Garden State and the Philadelphia region America’s Garden Capital. Best characterized by its picturesque landscape and historic, close-knit communities, this five-neighborhood region is an escape from city living to a quieter, more serene lifestyle. And, with local festivals — like Harleysville’s Heckler’s and Medford’s Dicken’s Festival — and spectacular architecture — from rustic log cabins to Victorian castles — these neighborhoods are cultural lighthouses in a sea of gentle, rolling hills.
