Millbourne Borough is a self-governing municipal borough in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, United States. As of the 2020 census, the population is 1,212. Millbourne borders Philadelphia along Cobbs Creek. The name "Millbourne" comes from the word Mill and "bourne" meaning creek.
Millbourne was settled by Samuel Sellers in 1682. Samuel's descendants later owned a gristmill in Millbourne called Millbourne Mills. In the early 1900s, developers Samuel Shoemaker and John L. Fry developed housing in Millbourne, leading to its separation from Upper Darby and its official incorporation as a borough in 1909. Millbourne Mills shut down in 1926 and was replaced by a Sears, Roebuck & Co. store, which operated until 1988 when it relocated to Upper Darby, causing financial strain on Millbourne. Millbourne was designated a financially distressed municipality in 1998 and was removed from the list in 2014.
Throughout its history, Millbourne has experienced waves of diverse ethnic populations, starting with Greek Americans, followed by East Asian Americans, and currently hosting a significant South Asian American community. Millbourne holds the distinction of having the most concentrated South Asian population in the entire United States.
Millbourne is served by its own SEPTA station known as Millbourne Station. Additionally, the town had its own police department and fire department, both established in 1909. However, the Millbourne Fire Company, which operated the fire department, ceased operations in 2019. In 2022, the former Sears site underwent redevelopment, resulting in the establishment of a logistics facility for the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.




History






= First settlement

=
Before the arrival of European settlers, the Lenape people were already in the Delaware Valley. After William Penn's signing of the Treaty of Shackamaxon, Samuel Sellers, the pioneering settler of the Sellers family, came from Derbyshire, England in 1682, with his brother George Sellers. Both brothers purchased two tracts of land totaling 75 acres (30 ha) and 100 acres (40 ha) from William Penn. The official survey for the land was not completed until 1690. Over time, Samuel, his sons, and grandsons expanded their land holdings through additional purchases in the surrounding area. George Sellers later died due to an unexplained death involving a tomahawk.
Samuel Sellers, the original settler, was a skilled weaver who played a pivotal role in the early industrial development of the region. He is credited with establishing the first twisting-mill in America. Building upon his father's legacy, Samuel's son, also named Samuel, and his grandson, John, continued the family tradition of weaving.

The presence of a dam in Millbourne was first documented in an important deed issued by John Sellers on August 27, 1752. John Sellers recognized the potential of harnessing the waterpower of Cobbs Creek, leading to the development of six sites along the waterway. These sites became essential for subsequent generations and contributed to the growth of Millbourne Mills, first called Sellers Mills.
During this time, Millbourne was part of Darby Township. But in 1786, Millbourne was separated with other municipalities to form Upper Darby Township.
Following John Sellers' passing in 1804, his estate was inherited by his sons, with George receiving the majority of Millbourne. John Sellers II inherited the grist and sawmills, which were already established before 1749. Millbourne Mills were initially operated by James Steel under the ownership of John Sellers Sr., and later by Thomas Steel, who took over in 1805.
In 1814, Thomas Steel acquired the Darby Mills and relocated, while John Sellers II. expanded the existing mill, resulting in the construction of the original section. John Sellers also owned a tannery on the Wayside farm in 1782. Additionally, an oil mill operated near the dam supplying water to Millbourne Mills until 1848.
The original gristmill underwent changes over time until its discontinuation. The new mill, built in 1814, was managed by John Sellers II. and featured advanced machinery. It achieved significant grain production, including wheat, rye, corn, buckwheat, and oats.
The mill underwent expansions and upgrades, including a four-story addition in 1868. It utilized a turbine wheel and later incorporated auxiliary steam power. John Sellers II passed away in 1878, and his sons continued operating Millbourne Mills with Thomas Steel. Millbourne Mills produced 250 barrels of Millbourne branded flour daily, with substantial wheat purchases and flour production in subsequent years.




= 20th century

In 1906, a patch of Millbourne was sold by John Sellers II's son, John, to make way for 69th Street Transportation Center, which connected Upper Darby to Philadelphia.
During the early spring of 1907 and throughout 1908, a considerable amount of construction took place on the hill west of Millbourne Mills, situated on West Chester Pike. Builders Samuel Shoemaker and John L. Fry, seeing a commercial opportunity, undertook the development of a suburban community featuring semi-detached homes. Upon completion, the properties boasted landscaped lawns, while the streets and sidewalks lined with trees. The location offered transportation options. The properties sold, with many units being purchased prior to their completion. Consequently, the homes attracted respectable businessmen and their families, leading to the establishment of a growing community.
In 1909, Judge Issac Johnson of Delaware County issued an opinion that allowed for the incorporation of Millbourne as a borough within Upper Darby Township. The exceptions raised during the proceedings were subsequently dismissed. Attorneys representing the petitioners, who included a significant portion of the community, prepared a decree in accordance with the judge's opinion. Millbourne became the fourth borough to be formed in the township, joining Clifton Heights, Lansdowne, and Aldan at the time. The Millbourne Fire Company and the Millbourne Police Department opened shortly after.
The Philadelphia Transportation Company (now SEPTA) opened a rapid transit station in Millbourne on March 4, 1907.
In 1910, Millbourne Mills was sold to the Shane Brothers and continued to produce flour until 1921. Millbourne Mills ceased operations in 1926 and was demolished to make way for a Sears Roebuck & Co. store.
Millbourne students would attend schools in the Millbourne School District but in 1971, Millbourne merged with other municipalities to form the Upper Darby School District.



Financially distressed municipality

The Sears Roebuck & Co. store operated from 1926 until 1988. The owner of the property Morris Willner, president of Willner Realty and Development Co., announced in April 1988 that Sears would move from Millbourne to a former Gimbel's Department Store in 69th Street in Upper Darby. After the move, Millbourne continued to collect parking fees from the former Sears parking lot. But in May 1990, Willner announced that Millbourne was no longer permitted to collect fees. There was plans to develop a discount supply store, but the company went bankrupt before plans could be arranged. The former Sears site was demolished in the 2000s.
During the early 1980s, Millbourne had the highest crime rate in all of Delaware County. In 1989, The Millbourne Fire Company was temporarily closed due to budget problems. After years of negotiations, The Millbourne Fire Company reopened in 1992.
After the relocation of Sears, Millbourne went into financial hardship. By the 1990s, due to mismanagement of borough funds, Millbourne was on the brink of bankruptcy. To receive enough funds to stay afloat, Millbourne had to be designated as a financially distressed municipality by the state of Pennsylvania, be absorbed back into Upper Darby, or contract municipal services within Millbourne out to Upper Darby Township.
Millbourne was designated a financially distressed municipality on January 7, 1993, by the state of Pennsylvania. Factors that led to a distress determination included revenue loss created from the closure of Sears and an evaluation by the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development. Fairmount Capital Advisors Inc., hired by the state of Pennsylvania, presented a five-year plan to recover Millbourne. The plan included:

reducing the numbers of officials in Millbourne council;
hiring a borough manager;
establishing a business office and a civil service commission;
acquiring market-rate, tax-exempt bond financing to finance bank debt, and raise capital for infrastructure repair; and
improving financial management with new computer systems.
Susana Smith of Bloomfield, New Jersey was hired as the borough manager. Taxes for homeowners in Millbourne rose between 1993 and 2014. A 40% increase in real-estate taxes in the 1995 preliminary budget was adopted by Millbourne due to the distress determination.




= 21st Century

In the 2000s, Millbourne was still designated as a financially distressed municipality. Since the 1970s, Millbourne has seen a notable rise in its South Asian population. Following the events of the September 11th attacks, Sikh New York cab drivers, relocated to Millbourne in order to seek safety from instances of hate crimes. Millbourne gradually became a secure haven for the expanding Sikh community due to its appealing amenities and the presence of a gurdwara. Millbourne became known as a "Little India."
In 2009, under the leadership of mayor Thomas Kramer, Millbourne enacted land value tax. Millbourne began imposing taxes on the land itself and not on the structures built there. This allowed Millbourne to raise the necessary funds to stay afloat. The former Sears lot became the largest source of revenue for Millbourne. On October 21, 2014, Millbourne was removed from the financially distressed municipality list. Millbourne had not overspent its budget in 5 years and even went as far as to use goats to remove weeds. The South Asian population in Millbourne continued to rise. In 2019, The Millbourne Fire Company closed indefinitely. In 2022, the former Sears site was developed and a Service and Logistics facility for the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia opened.

= Cultural diversity

=

In the 1980s, Millbourne had a majority of Greek Americans and East Asians. Since the 2000s, Millbourne has been considered the first municipality in Pennsylvania with a Desi majority. Millbourne is often called a "Little India" due to this large Indian presence. Most residents stay for a few years before moving to other places, after they become financially stable.
The increase in the South Asian population in Millbourne can be attributed to the migration of Sikh cab drivers from New York following the September 11th attacks. Seeking refuge from potential hate crimes targeting their use of turbans, as well as drawn by Millbourne's economic opportunities. Another contributing factor to the rise in the South Asian population in Millbourne is the presence of relatives already living in the area, allowing for family reunification.

Philadelphia Sikhi Society

The Philadelphia Sikhi Society is a gurdwara located on Garden Court. Since the 1990s, it has been Millbourne's only place of worship. It was founded after a small Sikh population in Philadelphia used a storefront as their place of worship until the 1990s when more Sikh immigrants arrived. The growing population required a larger space, so they purchased an old warehouse in Millbourne and transformed it into a new gurdwara. The Sikh temple's move to Millbourne led to a significant increase in the population. The gurdwara offers prayer services every Sunday and Friday. Annually, the Philadelphia Sikhi Society holds a Sikh Guru Nanak parade in celebration of the founder of Sikhism, Guru Nanak.

= Public safety

Millbourne Police Department

The Millbourne Police Department was founded in 1909. Millbourne maintains its own police department, which provides frequent coverage of each street. Millbourne had an unreliable relationship with its police department in the early 1950s due to Millbourne's civil service laws being "carelessly" administered, according to the Delaware County Daily Times. Police officers in the police department were also the lowest paid officers in Delaware County. Since then, tensions between two parties have been resolved. During the early 1980s, Millbourne had the highest crime rate in all of Delaware County. Since then, crime has lowered, with exceptions in the rise of larceny.
Millbourne has a Town Watch, a volunteer organization run in cooperation with the police department. The Town Watch was formed after Upper Darby officials urged nearby residents to form neighborhood watch groups in 2011. Magisterial courts with presiding jurisdiction for Millbourne are located in Upper Darby.



Millbourne Fire Company

The Millbourne Fire Company was founded in 1909 and provided Millbourne with firefighting services until its closure in 2019. Upper Darby Township Fire Company, the East Lansdowne Fire Company and the Yeadon Fire Company now service Millbourne.



= 1990s Finance Issues
=
In October 1989, the Millbourne Fire Company temporarily ceased operations due to insufficient funds for insurance. However, an extension was granted by the insurance company after Millbourne Borough could not afford the insurance premiums. To ensure fire protection, Millbourne Borough voting to contract services with Upper Darby Township, replacing the volunteer-run fire company with a paid one. The Millbourne Fire Company disputed Millbourne Borough's decision and was shut down again due to lack of funds. In response to the challenge, Delaware County Judge John Diggins ordered a referendum. On May 16, 1990, Residents were presented with the following question in the referendum: "Do you support the replacement of the Volunteer Fire Company with a paid fire company in the Borough of Millbourne?" Subsequently, the referendum was held, and the results revealed that 66 individuals voted in favor of the replacement, whereas 76 individuals voted against it. Millbourne Fire Company was allowed to stay and Millbourne Borough was ordered to pay $12,000 ($2,688 in 2022) for funding.
The Millbourne Fire Company only received $500 ($1,120 in 2022) both in July and August 1990. Millbourne Borough appealed the Diggins decision, and the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania reversed the decision. The Millbourne Fire Company attempted to appeal to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania but was rejected on March 11, 1992. On October 1, 1992, after Millbourne Borough presented Millbourne Fire Company with $4,200 ($8,759 in 2022) in funding, Millbourne Fire Company finally reopened after over 2 years of closure.



= 2019 Closure
=
On April 23, 2019, in a meeting, ten members unanimously voted to close the Millbourne Fire Company after 110 years of service. Fire Chief Joseph Artmont Jr. and President Andy Formanes were elected to handle any remaining tasks. Failed negotiations with Millbourne Borough led to the closure, and the firehouse has been locked with agreements of sale on two fire trucks.
The Millbourne Fire Company issued a letter addressing misinformation and outlining issues between Millbourne Fire Company and Millbourne Borough. They had requested funding for part-time paid firefighters, but the proposals were rejected. The department faced challenges due to a shortage of volunteers and insufficient resources. The closure leaves Millbourne relying on neighboring fire departments for coverage.




Economy


Millbourne relied on property taxes from a Sears store but faced financial hardship after its closure in 1988. Mismanagement of funds pushed Millbourne towards bankruptcy. The state of Pennsylvania designated Millbourne as financially distressed in 1993 and hired Fairmount Capital Advisors Inc. for a recovery plan. Taxes increased for homeowners. In the 2000s, Millbourne implemented a land value tax, generating revenue from the land itself. The former Sears lot became a major income source. On October 21, 2014, Millbourne was removed from the distressed list.
In 2012, a development plan was created for the vacant 18 acres (7.3 ha) plot of land that originally hosted Sears. It included multiple retail stores and anchors, housing units and apartments, and new townhall. Due to the property lying within the Cobb's Creek floodplain and being located in a disadvantaged area, the plan was scrapped. On October 7, 2022, after 7 years of planning, the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia opened a logistics facility at the former Sears lot. With the arrival of the new facility, Delaware Country reassessed the site's value at $50.6 million.
According to the 2020 Census, The median income for a household in Millbourne was $45,800, and the median income for a family was $44,732. The per capita income for Millbourne was $15,752.
