Skippack Township
When the "Township of Skippack and Perkioming" was divided along the Perkiomen Creek, Skippack Township was created from the land on the east bank of the creek. The area was mostly Mennonite farms at first, however today there are less farms on smaller lots of land. There are still some businesses that serve and provide jobs for the community, but the township is changing into a residential town as more homes are built while less businesses remain. Skippack Village is considered the center of town and is the only village in the township other than Creamery.
