About Montrose

Perched in the rolling hills of Susquehanna County, Montrose is a scenic mountain borough with plenty of classic small-town charm. The historic downtown revolves around a beautiful county courthouse, where walkable streets are lined with 19th-century brick architecture, local businesses, and well-kept older homes. The town also carries a deep heritage as an early abolitionist center and Underground Railroad stop. Between the peaceful pace, surrounding Endless Mountains scenery, and tight-knit community feel, Montrose makes an appealing home for anyone seeking a quieter lifestyle in northeastern Pennsylvania.
