Housing MCP Hahnemann University Hospitals' residents have many choices of living arrangements. Housing in Philadelphia is less expensive than in other major Northeastern cities. Renting an apartment in the surrounding Center City neighborhoods or finding affordable housing in the suburbs or across the river in New Jersey are some of the plentiful options available. There are various resources available for locating the housing that is right for you.

Apartments are available near the hospital, or in Center City, in all price ranges.
