The Borough of West Chester along with the adjacent townships of Birmingham, East Bradford, East Goshen, Thornbury, West Goshen and Westtown establish the Greater West Chester Area.

As the governmental seat of Chester County, West Chester is the region's cultural mecca - boasting tree-lined streets, brick sidewalks and a diverse array of shops, restaurants and art galleries. West Chester is home to a distinctive downtown historic district that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places; there are over 3,000 buildings in West Chester that were built prior to 1935.

Visitors to this quaint community feel as if they have been transplanted to another era. With its carefully preserved architecture dating back to the 1700s, stream-filled valleys and woodlands and abundance of open space, Greater West Chester's picturesque landscape is as timeless as the art that it inspires.
