Chester insight
What makes the Chester market different.
Chester was Pennsylvania's first city — founded 1644 as a Swedish trading post, predating Philadelphia by 38 years. William Penn first set foot in his colony at Chester in 1682. The Commodore Barry Bridge over the Delaware connects to Bridgeport NJ. Subaru Park (formerly Talen Energy Stadium) hosts the Philadelphia Union MLS team — match days bring car-key call volume to the surrounding parking lots. Widener University (~6,500 students) anchors the institutional residential demand. Crozer-Chester Medical Center has had public financial difficulties recently but remains a large medical-employment anchor for the city. Chester's residential stock is dense urban row-house and twin-home, with constant tenant turnover that drives the rental rekey volume. Response from Philly HQ is 30-40 min via I-95 — among the shortest in our PA footprint despite the 18-mi distance.
