Living in Devon, PA: what to set up and who to call

Devon has no town government of its own, so Chester County runs its elections and most services, and its children attend Tredyffrin-Easttown School District. Aqua Pa Main System reported one health-based violation to EPA in the last five years: a groundwater treatment requirement (Groundwater Rule), beginning Nov 2024.

Devon has no town government. It’s a census-designated place in Chester County, so the county and regional agencies provide most services. This page answers what we can; the same answers appear on Devon’s town page under “Getting set up”.

Electricity

Power comes from PECO Energy

PECO Energy (PECO Energy Co), an investor-owned utility, serves all of Devon. Its homes paid an average of 18.0¢ per kWh in 2025, about $136 a month (its average across Pennsylvania, for customers on its standard service). Pennsylvania lets you buy power from another supplier; 20% of PECO Energy’s home customers do, and PECO Energy still delivers it.

Drinking water · reported to EPA

Water comes from Aqua Pa Main System

1 health-based violation reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026: a groundwater treatment requirement (Groundwater Rule), beginning Nov 2024. 93% of the 42 systems serving 500,001–1,000,000 people had none.
