Our community combines the historic charm of a small village with the convenience and accessibility of a city business district.

Roxborough is home to an eclectic mixture of businesses. Some have been part of Roxborough's diverse fabric for over a hundred years, while others are brand new to our neighborhood.  Many of these businesses can be found on our historic "main street," Ridge Avenue.  

Roxborough is a great place to shop, dine,  attend a concert, or go for a stroll in a lush, green park.   Visit and see for yourself why Roxborough is Philadelphia's Next Neighborhood.
