Golf in Exton

Exton is the commercial center of West Whiteland Township in Chester County, a Route 30 Bypass hub that has grown from a country crossroads into one of the Philadelphia region's significant employment and retail centers. The Exton Square Mall, the Chester Valley Trail, and the Exton station on SEPTA's Paoli-Thorndale Line anchor the community's infrastructure, while corporate campuses along the Route 30 and Route 100 corridors draw a highly educated workforce. Chester County is Pennsylvania's wealthiest county, and Exton's demographics reflect that positioning — the surrounding communities have supported a dense private and semi-private club golf tradition since the late nineteenth century. The Chester Valley corridor here carries geological significance: the limestone valley running east-west through Chester County provides the same well-drained, firm-soiled conditions that have made this region hospitable to the game.
