About
The town of Philadelphia—New York, not Pennsylvania—is a small riverside community that has historical roots in the timber industry. The area is largely rural with farms dotting the landscape. Fun fact—Philadelphia brand cream cheese is named after this town, not the large city to the south, due to the quality of the cream cheese produced in the area.
Families choose to settle in the area due to the proximity of several well-regarded schools, namely Indian River Intermediate School, Indian River Middle School, and Indian River High School. The affordable housing is also appealing for military families and Philadelphia has an array of properties to support a variety of income levels.
