About Jerseytown
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.
Families in Jerseytown are part of the Millville Area School District, with campuses located a short drive down the road in neighboring Millville. Mud Creek winds right through the village, adding to the area's scenic charm. With convenient highway connections, residents can easily reach larger hubs like Bloomsburg, Milton, and Turbotville for shopping, dining, and healthcare. It is a welcoming, quiet spot where wide open spaces and regional convenience go hand in hand.
