I have lived in Overbrook Farms for the last 15 years and love it. We are a stable neighborhood that is ethnically diverse with great housing stock that is a great value. The Overbrook Farms club http://www.overbrookfarmsclub.org/ is a very active civic association that is one of the oldest in the country. It is a 15 minute drive or a 12 minute train ride into Center City . Check the earlier wiki answer for the boundaries of Overbrook Farms, from 58th to 66th Sts., Woodbine Ave to City Ave, with the 6400 and 6600 blocks of Woodcrest and Morris Park Aves. We are an historic district, but what makes the neighborhood is the diversity and dedication of the residents. It's not for everybody, but for most of those of us who live there, we wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
