Jerseytown, PA

Tucked into the rolling farmland of Columbia County, Jerseytown is a quiet rural community with deep Pennsylvania roots. Settlers from New Jersey established the village in the late 1700s, naming it after their home state, and it quickly grew into a bustling stagecoach stop. Today, Pennsylvania Routes 44 and 254 meet right in the center of town, surrounded by wide-open pastures, wooded ridges, and peaceful valley views. It offers a classic countryside setting for anyone seeking a slower pace of living.
