Georgetown, PA

Set on a high bluff overlooking the Ohio River, Georgetown is a tiny, quiet community in the western corner of Beaver County. The borough has deep roots as an early riverboat landing, where boats once moved goods along the river and Lewis and Clark stopped to buy a canoe in 1803. While the heavy riverboat traffic of the frontier era has faded, Georgetown keeps its close connection to the water, giving residents wide scenic views and a calm, slow-paced atmosphere.

The town remains pleasantly compact, centered around scenic spots like Water Street and historic landmarks such as St. Luke's Episcopal Church. Sitting right near the border where Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia meet, the borough is part of Greene Township and is served by the South Side Area School District. For people interested in small-town river living with plenty of open space and easy road connections across the region, Georgetown offers a peaceful spot to settle down.
