Downingtown, PA Overview

The Downingtown area features attractive, developing new communities with a great potential for future expansion.  Much of the area is still open land, ready and willing to absorb the anticipated growth.  Many of the area’s new subdivisions provide an abundance of larger homes at more reasonable prices than those in the established Main Line communities or the municipalities that are closer to Center City Philadelphia.  Lots average one-half acre or more.  Even the clustered style multi-family developments have generous parcels of accompanying open space.  A central location within Chester County, progressive development, convenient transportation and good schools combine to make this area an ideal residential choice.

Climate and Weather

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
