Kenhorst, PA

Kenhorst is a small, established borough located just southwest of Reading in Berks County. With around 3,000 residents, the community grew out of several residential neighborhoods that came together in the 1930s. Today, it features quiet, sidewalk-lined streets, neatly kept single-family homes, and handy local shopping along New Holland Road and Route 724. Local students attend schools in the Governor Mifflin School District, which serves Kenhorst and the surrounding suburban townships.
