Geography


East Lansdowne is located at 39°56′39″N 75°15′37″W (39.944162, -75.260253).[3]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough has a total area of 0.2 square miles (0.52 km2), all of it land.

East Lansdowne is located about a half a mile west of Southwest Philadelphia and is surrounded by Upper Darby Township, namely the Stonehurst/Stonehurst Hills/69th Street and Fernwood neighborhoods. Union Avenue to the west separates Lansdowne from Upper Darby, while the East Lansdowne border is near Hirst Avenue, leaving a one-block expanse of land that is part of Upper Darby Township. It is the former railroad track that gives East Lansdowne borough's western boundary that vaguely ovoid shape.

The borough of Yeadon is south of the SEPTA Media/Elwyn Line Railroad tracks, about one block south of East Lansdowne.
