About New Market

Tucked along the northern edge of Fairview Township in York County, New Market is a quiet riverside community with deep historic roots. Sitting near the confluence of Yellow Breeches Creek and the Susquehanna River, the neighborhood dates back to the 1700s, when travelers relied on an early ferry to cross the water. It soon developed into a tidy village with a compact street grid that remains recognizable today.

For newcomers, New Market offers a peaceful, tucked-away feel with remarkably easy access into Harrisburg and the broader Capital Region. The surrounding township balances open farmland and wooded hills with suburban convenience, while the nearby river and creek provide great scenery and outdoor recreation like fishing and kayaking. It is a cozy, historic corner of York County that feels both well-connected and comfortably removed.
