Anchored by Somerton and Bustleton in Philadelphia's Far Northeast, 19116 blends suburban calm with city convenience along the Bucks County line. You'll find quiet, tree-lined streets, garden-style apartments, and a four-season climate with humid summers and brisk, occasionally snowy winters. Daily errands are easy at Red Lion Plaza and Somerton Shopping Center, with grocery options like Giant, Aldi, and NetCost Market; coffee comes from Starbucks and neighborhood bakeries, and the dining scene leans Eastern European alongside pho and sushi. Green escapes include the Pennypack Park and Poquessing Creek trails, and workouts are covered by Planet Fitness and local studios. Commuters appreciate Somerton Station (SEPTA Regional Rail), buses along Bustleton and Roosevelt, and fast links to US-1, I-95, and the PA Turnpike. The vibe is friendly, family-oriented, and pet-welcome, with low-key pubs and BYOBs over late-night clubs. According to Zillow Market Trends, recent median asking rent hovers in the upper-$1,600s, with most listings ranging from the mid-$1,300s to low-$2,300s.
