About Carrolltown

Carrolltown is a quiet, tight-knit borough tucked into the hills of Cambria County, home to just over a thousand residents. Sitting right along Route 219, it offers the peace of small-town living while keeping everyday necessities within easy reach. Ebensburg is less than ten minutes south for shopping, dining, and county services, while Altoona and Johnstown are both convenient drives for work or weekend trips.

The community has deep roots in the Laurel Highlands, tracing back to the early 1800s and the historic Catholic mission work of Prince Demetrius Gallitzin. The landmark St. Benedict Church still anchors the center of town, lending the area a classic, timeless charm. It is the kind of place that appeals to anyone looking for a friendly neighborhood, affordable homes, and a slower pace of life in western Pennsylvania.
