Somerton: The Far Northeast Corner of Philadelphia
Somerton sits in the Far Northeast section of Philadelphia, abutting Bucks County to the north along the city line. Geographically, it is one of the most distant neighborhoods from Center City, roughly 14 miles by road from City Hall, and its physical character has more in common with the inner-ring suburbs of Bucks and Montgomery counties than with the rowhouse blocks of South or West Philadelphia. Single-family detached homes, twin houses on larger lots, and ranch-style postwar construction dominate the residential streets.
The neighborhood developed gradually after World War II as Philadelphia's middle class moved outward from the older parts of the city. Bustleton Avenue runs through the heart of Somerton and forms the main commercial spine, with strip retail, supermarkets, and small office buildings. The SEPTA Regional Rail Trenton Line runs through the western edge of the neighborhood, with the Somerton station providing direct service into Center City and onward to New Jersey.
The Somerton station sits on the West Trenton Regional Rail Line, giving commuters a direct seat to both Center City Philadelphia and Trenton without changing trains. Residential streets are dominated by single-family suburban housing on wooded lots, and many blocks retain mature tree canopy from the pre-development landscape. Byberry Road forms the northern edge of the neighborhood and marks the transition toward Bucks County.
