About Delanco Township
Delanco is a lovely waterfront town that was established in 1848 as a summer retreat for people wanting to escape the summer heat of Philadelphia. Visitors from the city would arrive in Delanco by paddle wheel boat.
Delanco is still a country town of about 3.2 square miles and its 4,000 residents enjoy a nice quality of life.
Delanco is a peninsula bordered by both the Delaware River and the Rancocas Creek.
Delanco touches Route 130 and is less than a 15 minute drive to Interstate 295 and the New Jersey Turnpike.
