About Franconia

Located a few minutes off the I-476, Franconia is home to 12,000 residents in Montgomery County. First settled in the 1600s by German settlers, the area is named after the German word translated “land of the Franks.” The area’s original religious tolerance attracted immigrants from across the world and has created a multinational town today that still respects that welcoming attitude. Residents of an apartment or home rental in Franconia appreciate the area’s sense of community as well as continued agricultural prosperity, evidenced by Moyer Packing, Pilgrim’s Pride, Marcho Farms, and Leidy’s Farms all maintaining prosperity through troubling economic times. Only 35 miles north of Philadelphia, residents also have the option of commuting to work.

The Youth Trout Fishing Derby is just one of Franconia’s trademark community events that distinguishes the area from its nearby counterparts. Enos Godshall Park, West Street Park, Forrest Meadow Park, and Franconia Community Park are the area’s finest and most valued recreational areas. Lined with towering trees and laid with winding pathways, residents of a Franconia house or apartment for rent enjoy the shear variety of activities afforded by the park system. The Indian Valley Country Club is an inexpensive retreat for many of the area’s residents and offers affordable tee times and green fees.
