About Browntown

Browntown is a small, quiet residential community in Pittston Township, located right along Route 11 on the border of Pittston. Originally built around the local coal mines in the late 1800s, the area now offers a low-key neighborhood atmosphere with easy access to city conveniences. Students attend Pittston Area schools, and residents can quickly drive into downtown Pittston for dining, community events, and daily shopping, or hop onto nearby highways to reach Wilkes-Barre and Scranton.
