In this issue of MarketRent™ powered by Clarendon, we spotlight North Philadelphia East, a prime example of the national shift towards walkable neighborhoods. Revitalized areas like Fishtown and Fairmount have seen rising demand and rental premiums, with Norris Square leading the way. Its compact layout, connected streets, and proximity to local amenities, including Norris Square Park, make it highly walkable. Recent upgrades in pedestrian infrastructure, like bike lanes and wider sidewalks, enhance its appeal. As demand for walkable living grows, North Philadelphia East is emerging as a key area for renters and real estate investors.
