About Auburn

Tucked along the banks of the Schuylkill River in eastern Pennsylvania, Auburn is a quiet borough with a relaxed, small-town pace. Originally settled during the canal era and later shaped by the railroad in the mid-1800s, the community offers a peaceful place to settle down in southern Schuylkill County. Route 895 runs right through town, making it simple to get around the region while still enjoying a scenic, low-traffic setting.

The surrounding landscape defines daily life here, with forested hills rising up around the water. Outdoor lovers will appreciate having direct access to the Schuylkill River Trail right from the local trailhead, along with a handy river landing for fishing and kayaking. With the Appalachian Trail running along the ridge just to the south, Auburn gives residents a quiet neighborhood feel with nature always close at hand.
