Concord Park is a residential neighborhood^[1] in the Trevose section of Bensalem Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, originally established as an intentional racially integrated community in 1954 by Morris Milgram^[2]^[3], a pioneering social activist and civil rights trailblazer who believed blacks should have the same access to housing as whites.^[4]^[5]^[6]

Concord Park Homes were "the first planned open occupancy homes for sale by a builder determined to build only integrated housing; 139 three and four-bedroom homes were sold and occupied by 55 percent white families and 45 percent Negro families."^[7]

The community's origin and history^[8] were featured at Bensalem Township's 325th anniversary^[9] in 2017 at Growden Mansion and on the Mayor's Show^[10].
