Doylestown is a borough located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, approximately 27 miles north of Philadelphia. The population was 8,380 at the 2010 census. Doylestown is a historic place that dates to 1745 when a Mr. William Doyle obtained a license to build a tavern on what is now the northwest corner of Main and State Streets. Known for years as the William Doyle Tavern, the location of the tavern became the intersection of a road linking Swede's Ford and Coryell's Ferry (now U.S. Route 202) and the what is now Pennsylvania Route 611. This strategic location was responsible for the hamlet growing into a full-fledged village. As the years progressed, Doylestown became a peaceful destination for tourists. The "gentry" from Philadelphia and New York maintained country estates in the countryside. During the 1990s, the downtown area was completely renovated to cater to tourists. Attractions include the Mercer Museum, Moravian Pottery and Tile Works, a renovated art deco theater, an art museum built around the ruins of the old stone jail, and a National Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa. This redevelopment has brought even more visitors to the Doylestown. The village is also known for being home to several notable residents, among them, author James A. Michener, playwright Oscar Hammerstein II, author Pearl S. Buck, anthropologist Margaret Mead and pop-rock star, Pink.
