North Wales

North Wales is a small borough in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania that is home to just over 3,000 residents. It is a suburb of Philadelphia and is one of the three historic population centers that make up the North Penn Valley, which is centered around the borough of Lansdale. Like many small boroughs in Pennsylvania, North Wales is at “build-out”, meaning that its boundaries have not kept up with population growth. Summarily, many businesses and residences with North Wales addresses are located in outlying townships that were never annexed by the borough. As its name suggests, North Wales was settled by Welsh immigrants who named it after North Wales in Wales. Its rural character was abruptly disrupted by the building of the North Pennsylvania Railroad starting in 1852. The town quickly grew around the railroad station, with hotels and restaurants lining Walnut Street and Main Street within walking distance. North Wales is the oldest of the North Penn boroughs, incorporated in 1869 by Montgomery County courts, not the state. In 2000, the North Wales Historic Preservation District was established by Borough Council and the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission to protect the architecture that is a visual reminder of the borough’s past. It is the first Historic District in the North Penn boroughs.
