Newtown, PA (Borough)

Located in Bucks County about thirty miles northeast of Philadelphia, Newtown combines classic historic charm with a relaxed suburban pace. The heart of the borough sits along State Street, a walkable stretch filled with brick sidewalks, preserved colonial buildings, independent coffee shops, and local restaurants. With roughly 2,300 residents, the borough has a neighborly, small-town atmosphere where people easily run into familiar faces while strolling through town.
