Just 17 miles outside of Philadelphia, Oreland lies on the perimeter of the greater Philly region. Home to over 5,000 residents, the area was originally settled as one of William Penn's manors. The fall of the mining and agricultural businesses in the region led Oreland to develop into a residential community and today targets relatively affluent upper-middle and upper class individuals and families looking for convenient and quiet housing with easy access to downtown Philadelphia. Residents of an apartment or home rental in Oreland can utilize the SEPTA R5 commuter train that can make the trip in about 10 to 12 minutes. Paying tribute to the area’s wealth and rather upscale properties, Oreland is surrounded by beautiful golf courses including Sandy Run Country Club, Lu Lu Country Club, North Hills Country Club, and Manufacturers Golf and Country Club. Residents of an Oreland house or apartment for rent have access to the Flourtown Shopping Mall, a few minutes out of town. The mall includes banking, shopping, and restaurants for residents to enjoy without having to travel far. Part of the Springfield Area School District, Oreland is served by an elementary school, 2 middle schools, and a large high school. A small Catholic school is also popular but highly selective in admission.
