Flourtown, PA

Did you know that Springfield Township was William Penn's gift to his first wife, Gulielma Maria Springiest Penn? And that "An ample flow of water found in the Wissahickon Creek and its tributaries supported at least three local mills. It was from this industry that "Flourtown" took its name. The abundance of lime and iron ore in its bounds gave "Oreland" its appropriate designation. "Erdenheim," originally known as "Heydricksdale" or "Wheelpump" was finally named after nearby farms and means "earthly home." "Wyndmoor," originally called "Tedyuscung," is the subject of many Native American legends." This history can be found on Springfield Township's website, which I personally find so interesting! 

It's been a thriving township ever since and a desirable place to call home. It also has a high ranking school district in PA >> https://www.schooldigger.com/go/PA/city/Springfield/search.aspx
Whether looking for convenience to work or into the city, to having great local restaurants and shops near by, I'm sure Springfield Township has what you need.
