Characteristics

Transportation

Zip Code 19446 is a fairly pleasant postal code for pedestrians; running common errands is convenient without a vehicle, and there are also a good number of businesses in proximity.

Zip Code 19446 is rather car friendly. It is convenient to come across a parking spot. However, public transit riders may have few options in this postal code as a result of the infrequent service.
