Ambler Spotlight: Why This Town Tops Everyone’s 2026 Move List
Welcome to Ambler — Montgomery County’s Hometown Star
Ambler isn’t just another Philadelphia suburb — it’s where history, community, and creativity meet.

With its charming Main Street, independent cafés, and weekly farmers market, Ambler is the perfect mix of urban energy and small-town pace.
Everything — from yoga studios to wine bars — is within a 10-minute walk.
Pro Tip: Homes within half a mile of the train station sell ~12 % higher on average than outer blocks.
