Olde Kensington is the neighborhood that buyers who missed the early wave of Fishtown and Northern Liberties are paying close attention to now. Bordered by Fishtown to the east and Northern Liberties to the south, Olde Kensington offers the same access to the city's best bars, restaurants, and transit corridors at price points that are still meaningfully below its more established neighbors. The neighborhood has seen significant new construction activity, with developers building out rowhomes and small condo buildings that are attracting a younger buyer demographic. The street-by-street variation here is real — buyers benefit from working with an agent who knows which blocks have turned and which are still in transition.
24,740 people live in Olde Kensington, where the median age is 28.5 and the average individual income is $33,125. Data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.
