It’s an amazing town! Clean, safe, great restaurants and shopping. Everyone is welcoming and friendly, there are plenty of trails and parks.
The downtown area is so fun and lively. They shut the Main Street down every weekend in the summer and there is live music and restaurants have tables outside. It is very family and dog friendly. Phoenixville does a lot of community events and fairs and farmers markets. I feel safe in my community and they are welcoming to visitors. It’s a great place to live with access to outdoor activities, parks, shopping and dining.
Phoenixville has something for everyone.
Phoenixville has something for everyone.
Phoenixville is a very vibrant suburban town. I would almost consider it a small city. There is a wide display of Public art, including statues, murals, and gardens. The area is very safe for pedestrians and full of small businesses. Also, it connects to the Schuylkill River Trail system, making it a great place for biking, walks, and horseback riding. The community is tight-knit but welcoming and celebrates local holidays, such as Blob Fest.
