A recent Philadelphia Business Journal listed the top 25 wealthiest zip codes.  Montgomery County led the way with 8 and a close second was Chester County (7).   Here’s a link to the article online: https://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/subscriber-only/2017/10/13/wealthiest-zip-codes.html.

“Montco residents are fortunate to have access to a wide range of high quality experiences,” said  Ed Harris, Chief Marketing Officer for Valley Forge Tourism and Convention Board. “From our premium shopping, to our close to 100 miles of trails, 54 golf courses, 1,600 restaurants, family zoo, casino, and more recent additions like iFly indoor skydiving, and Legoland Discovery Center, we have countless reasons to not only spend time here, but live here.”  

Esri ranked Zip codes within Philadelphia and its surrounding counties of Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Lancaster, Lehigh, Chester, and Montgomery in Pennsylvania; Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, Ocean, Salem in New Jersey; and Kent and New Castle in Delaware in descending order by it’s defined wealth rank.

“Although Montco ranks high on the list of wealthiest zip codes in our region, there are still areas in our county that need assistance,” Harris continued. “We’re happy to keep our commitment to do what we can to support our communities and we look forward to growing our food drive initiative every year.”   

For those less fortunate in Montco, the VFTCB recently completed their 3rd annual Valley Forge Freedom from Hunger Food Drive inspired by Pope Francis’ visit to the region in 2015 when he stayed in Montco.  This year, the team at the VFTCB surpassed their goal of raising over 4,500 pounds of food.
