Welcome to Perkasie
Bucks County is home to some of the most exclusive towns in Pennsylvania. Unsurprisingly, the county has a privileged geographic location, with vast expanses of green land on which flourishing communities are based. This is the case in Dublin and Perkasie, two of the boroughs with the highest demand in the state of Pennsylvania.
Perkasie was established at the beginning of the 19th century as a small agricultural and artisan community. Throughout its history, it has been transformed from a small village of artisans to a flourishing and eclectic community that has modernized socially, infrastructurally, and commercially while keeping its charming old-town vibe.
Dublin owes its name to the first tavern built in this area. At the beginning of the 18th century, Dublin was made up of a community of Europeans, mainly from Germany and Ireland, who settled in the rich lands of Pennsylvania. Over the years, that small village has transformed into the Dublin we know today, a flourishing, modern, and prosperous borough that is home to one of the most welcoming communities in the area.
