About East Salem

East Salem sits at the intersection of Routes 333 and 235 in Juniata County, surrounded by rolling farm fields and quiet woodlands. Located in Delaware Township about four miles north of Thompsontown, this small rural community offers plenty of space, historic country churches, and a relaxed pace of daily living. It feels well off the beaten path, yet quick access to Route 22/322 just down the road makes it easy to commute toward Lewistown or Harrisburg and reach everyday conveniences in neighboring towns.
