About Alfarata

Alfarata is a quiet rural hamlet along Route 522 in Mifflin County, sitting right in the scenic Juniata River valley. Named after the heroine of the old ballad "The Blue Juniata," this small Decatur Township community offers plenty of open farmland and wooded mountain views. Everyday life is peaceful and slow-paced, with Lewistown just a quick drive north for groceries, healthcare, and dining. It is an appealing spot for anyone looking to settle into central Pennsylvania's countryside while staying connected to nearby towns.
