About Chester Hill
Chester Hill is a quiet borough tucked along the western bank of Moshannon Creek in Clearfield County. Home to a little over 800 people, it is a small residential community with peaceful streets and modest single-family homes. The borough grew during the region's historic timber and brickmaking boom, and today it remains a calm, settled neighborhood where life moves at an easy pace.
Daily life here is closely linked to neighboring Philipsburg, located directly across the creek in Centre County. A quick trip over the bridge brings you straight into downtown for grocery shopping, local diners, schools, and community services. Outdoor recreation at Cold Stream Dam and Black Moshannon State Park is right nearby, while State College is an easy drive for work or weekend outings. For newcomers, Chester Hill provides an affordable, low-traffic setting with everyday necessities close at hand.
