Ivyland Borough by the numbers.
Census-cited figures for Ivyland Borough from the American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates (2020–2024).

Three bills. Three offices. County-published millage.

Estimated annual total
Estimate only: assessed value × mills ÷ 1,000 per layer, before the homestead exclusion or
any interim adjustments. The county bill is what the offices say it is, not what a website computes.
Walkable downtowns, the Route 611 retail spine, and Central Bucks School District demand — the county's quality-of-life premium.
Buyer framing (curated): School district reputation, Route 611 retail, and Warminster rail access drive buyer demand. Compare Warrington, Doylestown, and Warwick before you anchor on one listing.
Assessment, deed, parcel, and municipal contact checks belong in every serious housing decision. These links route to official or curated public-source hubs — not secondary aggregators.
Production housing intelligence means honest gaps — not filler. These items still need official source input or licensed data before they can be published as facts.

Landmark
New Hope & Ivyland Railroad heritage
The borough lent its name to the historic New Hope & Ivyland Railroad — the Victorian station-town street grid is the legacy.
Roads
Route 332 (Jacksonville Road corridor)
Ivyland sits just off 332 between Warminster and Northampton — Newtown and the county's Street Road spine are both minutes away.
Ivyland is a half-square-mile Victorian railroad borough hiding inside the Warminster–
Northampton suburban fabric: a walkable grid of 19th-century homes, its own tiny government,
and a name borrowed by the famous New Hope & Ivyland heritage railroad. Inventory is scarce
almost by definition — there are only a few hundred homes, and the borough isn’t making more.
Daily life leans on the neighbors: Warminster’s station and shopping one direction,
Northampton’s parks and Council Rock-adjacent amenities the other. Buyers should be clear-eyed
that Ivyland’s charm is historic-district charm — smaller lots, older systems, and a premium
for scarcity — with the trade-off of big-township services being a borough line away.
