Blue Bell, a wealthy town in Montgomery County and suburb of Philadelphia, was originally known as Pigeontown, Pennsylvania, after the large flocks of the now-extinct passenger pigeons that once gathered there. The town was renamed in 1840 after the historically prominent Blue Bell Inn. The median HH income is about $120,000.
