Where is the nearest major airport?

<p>A train ticket between Bryn Mawr and Philadelphia International Airport is $10 one way. Haverford is one stop before Bryn Mawr and in a cheaper fare zone, but I have a feeling that airport tickets are probably the same.</p>

<p>There are two trains from Haverford into Philly: the R5 and the R100 (the Norristown High Speed Line). The R100 requires a transfer, but it’s cheaper than the R5 and gets us to more destinations in Philadelphia. </p>

<p>Haverford is in the middle of Philadelphia suburbs. The moment you step off campus, you are surrounded by banks, cafes, stores and residential buildings. The campus does not feel very urban though because the residential and academic buildings are separated from the busy roads by green space (which belongs to campus!). </p>

<p>You can see that pretty well on Google Maps. Haverford College extends over three blocks. The center block is where most of the campus buildings are and the two fringe blocks are mostly green space (the West block features athletic fields, the East block a duck pond). Lancester Avenue, which bounds the East side of campus, is a major commuter road and framed by all sort of businesses.</p>
