Description

University City is a mid-sized apartment sub-market known for its steady growth and consistent outperforming trends compared to Center City. This stability is largely driven by strong demand from the academic and healthcare sectors, which shield the sub-market from broader economic fluctuations. The combined off-campus student population at the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University exceeds 28,000, providing a reliable foundation for apartment leasing in the area. In recent years, the life sciences sector has emerged as a major driver of housing demand in University City. Prestigious research institutions and companies like Penn Medicine and CHOP attract highly skilled workers who seek convenient, high-quality housing options near world-class facilities. Major developments such as Schuylkill Yards, UCity Square, and Penn Medicine’s new headquarters have further bolstered this demand. The availability of state-of-the-art office and lab spaces has also drawn established f irms like Spark Therapeutics and B+ Labs, creating a dynamic professional community alongside the student population.MPN Realty, Inc. is pleased to present the exclusive sale of 4640 Sansom St., a duplex in University City.
