About Penfield

Tucked into the deep woods of Clearfield County, Penfield is a quiet rural community surrounded by Moshannon State Forest. It sits just off Interstate 80, so getting around the region is quick and easy. The town grew during central Pennsylvania's timber boom, and today it remains a peaceful, relaxed place where nature is always right down the road.

Penfield gives residents a calm, wooded setting with plenty of space to breathe and the state forest right in the backyard.
