Did you know Philadelphia is also known as the “City of Brotherly Love”? Perhaps this is because areas such as York Street in East Kensington continue to cherish their family-friendly community.

New residents to Philadelphia will adore the 300 local parks, important historic sites, and charming community gardens. Locals and property developers alike are smitten with the East Kensington neighborhood.

As such, developers are keen to provide state-of-the-art yet affordable York Street apartments. Ergo, now is the time to migrate neighborhoods or move for the first time into Philadelphia.

While relocating can be hard and time-consuming, it can also be fun and thrilling. Start planning today, and find Philadelphia apartments near York Street.

How to Find an Apartment

Aside from an estate agent, there are additional ways to find an apartment. Research shows that people looking for new apartments tend to do so towards the end of the month.

Therefore, consider searching online at the beginning of the month. Furthermore, top websites such as M & M Management offer renting information while also showing prices accordingly.

Questions to Consider When Planning a Move

There are four main elements to consider when looking for a property: location, price, home value, and surrounding infrastructure. 

How Welcoming Is the Neighborhood?

Potential new residents to Philadelphia should perform neighborhood research. Do not be scared to send messages on local Facebook groups asking for information on a neighborhood. Remember that you’ll want a friendly location where it is easy to build a new social circle. 

For example, York Street and Fishtown in East Kensington are known as the safest neighborhoods. Furthermore, locals have voted it the best for young professionals. Locals adore the artisan eateries such as Philly Style Bagels and music venues, especially The Fillmore Philadelphia. There are many venues, so consequently, it is easy to mingle with new people.

Is Local Transportation Seamless?

On a map, draw an “x” to mark potential York Street apartments. Then, pencil a line to school locations, local amenities, and the daily commute route. Doing so will identify an “activity zone.” Using this map will shortlist apartments. Essentially, look elsewhere if transportation links to school, amenities, and work are not strong.

Is Access to Quality Education Easy?

Contact schools and ask for a tour. Seeing first-hand the standard of teaching is essential. Many online sites report the evaluation of local schools and provide rankings. From York Street children can attend Philadelphia’s top-ranking Julia R. Masterman School. This educational institution has a niche grade of A+ and offers a student-teacher ratio of 24:1. 

What Is the Home Value?

This question is deeper than the apartment price. Look for features that will continue to increase the value. For example, the property might be open-plan or have amenities such as parking, or a gym. Perhaps the developers have included a roof garden.
