Towamencin has residential neighborhoods, historic farmhouses, recreational facilities, many schools, and open spaces. The community is a mix of residential, commercial, and rural development. The Township is centrally located within Montgomery County with easy access to the Pennsylvania Turnpike’s Northeast Extension.
The name Towamencin is of Native American origin, although there exists some disagreement about the name's history. Some early sources, such as the 1850 United States Census, record the township's name as "Towamensing." The Towamensing name appears on local tax records as late as 1922, although the 1920 census records the township with the modern spelling of Towamencin. According to History of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, Volume II, both the Towamensing and Towamencin spellings were in use circa 1884. The same source cites Towamensing as the original spelling but notes that the Towamencin spelling was in use for government records in Norristown. It is unclear when the modern spelling of Towamencin was universally adopted.
The name "Towamensing" is Lenape in origin and means either "the place of feeding cattle" "pasture land," or "a fording place at the falls". However, an alternative source claims that, while the name Towamencin is of Native American origin, it instead means "poplar tree."

FAQs
Is Towamencin, PA a good place to live?

Living in Towamencin Township offers residents a dense suburban feel and most residents own their homes. In Towamencin Township there are a lot of parks.

What is Towamencin, PA famous for?
Pennsylvania is known as the Keystone State for its role in the Revolution, and as one of the oldest settlements during the time, Towamencin Township played a part: the Township had encampments of soldiers, had many citizens that served, and was the retreating place for General Washington and his troops after the Battle of Germantown. The Continental Army troops were in Towamencin from October 8, 1777, to October 16, 1777, and camped in the Northern section of the Township. The Township provided a secure area to rest, without fear of surprise attack by the British.
How did Towamencin, PA get its name?
The name Towamencin is of American Indian origins, and means "Poplar Tree". The legend associated with the name started in the 1720s when Heinrich Fry purchased some land near what is now known as Towamencin Creek. On this tract of land was an Indian Village. The Indian Chief spoke broken English and observed one day two men clearing trees near the creek and said "Towha-men-seen", meaning "Two men seen." Apparently, the Chief's pronunciation stuck, as the legend goes, and is how Towamencin got its name.
