Fishtown is located just minutes from Center City Philadelphia, making it the perfect place for those who want to be close to the action but don’t want to live right in the middle of it. In addition, Fishtown is one of the most convenient places to live in Philadelphia thanks to its easy access to public transportation and major highways.

Fishtown has undergone a major transformation in recent years, with new bars, restaurants, and shops opening up along Girard and Frankford Avenues. Add that to the location and affordability and it’s no wonder why so many young professionals and families are flocking to call Fishtown home.
