Located 16 miles north of Philadelphia, Ambler is a social, cultural, and business center of this friendly, small community. With a population of 6,400, it covers less than a square mile. Ambler’s churches, affordable housing, great schools, convenient public transportation accessibility, parks, recreation facilities, and a “walkable” downtown make it an ideal location for living, working, and playing.
Ambler residents benefit from many wonderful organizations, community facilities, and arts centers, including the historic Ambler Theater, Wissahickon Valley Public Library, and the Ambler Area YMCA. The award-winning ACT II Playhouse draws patrons from Philadelphia and beyond for its eclectic theater productions in an intimate setting. The Ambler Symphony Orchestra performs seasonally at area auditoriums.
