Like most other smaller boroughs, little land remains open for development. It should be noted that some residents and businesses may have a Telford mailing address, but will actually be located in Franconia Township. However, this would apply only to the Montgomery County portion. The entire borough is serviced by public water and sewer facilities. A full-time police force serves the borough.
Fire protection is provided by volunteer companies.
Residential trash disposal is provided by three licensed haulers. A full-time director is employed by the borough. Facilities include parks with playground equipment, tennis and basketball courts, and other facilities. Little League programs are run jointly with Souderton Borough. A main street shopping area serves the borough.
