About the School District of Haverford Township

The School District of Haverford Township serves approximately 6,600 students across seven schools, from kindergarten through twelfth grade.

Communities in the Haverford Township School District

Haverford Township is one of the largest and most varied communities in Delaware County, with distinct neighborhoods that each carry their own character and price point. Here is a broad overview:

  • Havertown: The heart of the township. Walkable, community-oriented, and full of classic brick Colonials, twins, and cape cods on tree-lined streets. Strong demand from buyers who want suburban living without giving up neighborhood feel.
  • Drexel Hill: The more affordable side of the township, with solid housing stock and convenient access to SEPTA's D1 and D2 trolleys (formerly Routes 101 and 102). A popular entry point for buyers targeting the district.
  • Brookline: A quieter residential pocket with well-kept single-family homes and a strong sense of community. Popular with families planting roots.
  • Oakmont: Established neighborhood with mature trees and classic mid-century homes. Good value relative to some of the township's pricier sections.
  • Westgate Hills: Desirable single-family neighborhood known for its curving streets and well-maintained properties. Consistent demand.
  • Merion Golf / Coopertown area: The upper end of the market. Larger homes on generous lots near Merion Golf Club and Coopertown Elementary, one of the top-ranked elementary schools in Pennsylvania.

Real Estate Market in the Haverford Township School District

Haverford Township is a large and active market (one of the highest transaction volume townships in Delaware County), which means there is usually something available at most price points, but well-priced homes in desirable neighborhoods still move quickly. The range is wide, from entry-level twins and cape cods on the Drexel Hill side all the way to significant single-family homes in the Merion Golf corridor. Most sales land in the middle: brick Colonials, twins, and capes in Havertown proper. Inventory runs tight, which favors sellers, but buyers who know the market and are prepared to move decisively can absolutely find the right home here.
