We are a community of approximately 13,000 residents, located on the Main Line, west of Philadelphia. Our historic downtown, one of the largest business districts in our area, contains a delightful mix of restaurants and small specialty shops, including antique and gift shops. Historic Ardmore is adjacent to Suburban Square, one of America's oldest shopping centers.

The Ardmore Initiative is a business district authority responsible for physical improvements and economic development in downtown Ardmore.
