The Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania lies on the west bank of the Schuylkill River, adjacent to Center City and the surrounding suburbs. Penn, as an urban campus, places a high emphasis on personal safety. Residents are provided with parking in a secure garage connected by a transport system to the Hospital on campus. A security van service operates within two miles of the Hospital for those who do not wish to bike or walk home after dark.
