Reply to comment by gj13us in Should Pennsylvania townships be considered as cities/towns? by Polskamon1

Neffsville is where the traffic light on 501 for Valley Road is, non? By the Turkey Hill. And the IU building. And the high school. And the toy shop.

Compare that to Lawn. Where there is a post office. And a volunteer fire station. Not much else. Even less in Upper Lawn, just a crossroads. Colebrook has a gas station. And a water dispensary. Twin Kiss has closed. And the tavern is still being rehabbed.

Mt. Gretna is a different story. There is Chattaqua (the Boro), Timber Hills (SoLo), Camp Meeting (W. Cornwall) and Laurel Woods (So. Annville).

PA is a municipal mess. Too many of them, imho.

Yes, that’s Neffsville.

York County has at least two incorporated boroughs with fewer than 300 people. Wellsville and Cross Roads. WHY????

Any PA municipality with fewer than 1500 permanent residents should be made to combine with another, imho.
