Considered a suburban unincorporated area just west of Philadelphia, Wynnewood is a lovely community that straddles Lower Merion Township and Haverford Township. Named in 1691 after Dr. Thomas Wynne (William Penn’s physician), this community is one of many neighborhoods on the historic Pennsylvania Main Line. It also happens to be home to a number of well-known institutions, including Lankenau Hospital, St. Charles Borromeo Seminary, Palmer Theological Seminary, and Friends' Central School.

This Pennsylvania community really does tout itself as an excellent place to live. In addition to beautiful homes and a convenient location along PA’s Main Line, this community is also home to a number of shopping plazas. The largest shopping center is the Wynnewood Shopping Center, which includes such shopping staples as Old Navy, Bed Bath and Beyond, Mad Mex and Giant. Other shopping venues in the area include Wynnewood Square and The Whole FoodsShopping Center. Wynnewood, which is primarily a residential community, is also historically known for its car dealerships, which line Lancaster Avenue from South Wynnewood to Argyle Road. Other amenities in and around the community include sports venues and public parks.

For the most part, public school children living here attend the Merion, Penn Wynne or Penn Valley elementary schools, which is part of Lower Merion School District. Then, these students are likely to attend Bala Cynwyd Middle School, Lower Merion High School and Harriton High School for their secondary education. There also are a number of private schools in the area as well for those parents who prefer to take that route. These include the all-boys Haverford School, the all-girls Baldwin and Agnes Irwin schools and the coeducational Friends Central School. Meanwhile, for post-secondary education, Saint Joseph's University is close by with parts of its campus in Merion, Bala Cynwyd and West Philadelphia. Villanova University and Rosemont College are also nearby.
