What it’s like
The place. Springfield Township is a small township in Burlington County where nearly everyone owns the home they live in. Incomes run well above the county's, and the poverty rate is lower than most places. The population is a little older than the national picture, and a good share of adults hold a four-year degree.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, the building trades, government, and professional and business services. Within the township, the Occupational Training Center of Burlington County, Patriot Roofing and the Springfield Township School District are among the largest workplaces. The typical commute is a fairly long one, and a modest share of people work from home.
Things to do. For a day out, Independence Hall, the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Franklin Institute are all museums or historic sites in Philadelphia, each a longer drive away. Winters are cold, with a fair amount of snow, and summers turn warm, so many outings suit the milder months.

It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Burlington County and the Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington, PA-NJ-DE-MD metro.
