Spanish in Philadelphia
About 160,000 Philadelphians speak Spanish at home (Census ACS 2024), and nearly half of the city's Hispanic residents are Puerto Rican, followed by Dominicans and Mexicans. Fairhill and Hunting Park in North Philadelphia hold the largest Latino populations, with El Centro de Oro, the Golden Block on North 5th Street at Lehigh Avenue, as the commercial heart.
Philadelphia's Mexican community centers on South Philadelphia around the Italian Market and, in the suburbs, on Norristown and the mushroom-growing area around Kennett Square. Camden, across the river, is about 43 percent Spanish-speaking. Puerto Rican and Dominican Spanish dominate in North Philadelphia and Camden, and Mexican Spanish in South Philadelphia, Norristown and Kennett Square; our schedulers match the interpreter to the speaker.
Neighborhoods and nearby cities with large Spanish-speaking communities include Fairhill, Hunting Park, Kensington, Norristown, Kennett Square and Camden, NJ.
