In 1955, the Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension interchange at Kulpsville was opened. This would set the stage for future development. Over the past decade, the township, especially in the Kulpsville area, has experienced significant development. All areas, with the exception of the panhandle portion of the township, have access to public water and sewer facilities. A full-time police force serves the residents.
Fire protection is provided by volunteer companies.
Residential trash disposal is arranged by private contractors. A part-time recreation director helps to organize various activities. Facilities, which include North Penn School District, are open to residents. These include small parks with playground equipment, a swimming pool, basketball courts and much more. Little League programs are run by a private organization.
