About Prospect

Prospect is a quiet Butler County borough with a relaxed, rural feel and easy access to outdoor fun. Route 422 runs right through town, making trips into Butler or New Castle simple, but the real highlight for locals is having Moraine State Park and Lake Arthur right next door for boating, hiking, and fishing. The community comes alive each summer for the Big Butler Fair and the annual Community Day. Families are part of the Slippery Rock Area School District, with Moraine Elementary located right on Main Street, giving Prospect a comfortable, close-knit hometown appeal.
