About Shiremanstown
Shiremanstown is a quiet, historic borough tucked into Cumberland County, about six miles west of Harrisburg. Home to around 1,600 residents, it sits neatly between Hampden and Lower Allen townships, offering a peaceful small-town setting. The community dates back to the late 1700s, named after early settler Daniel Shireman. Today, classic brick homes, neighborhood churches, and the local borough hall line the walkable Main Street grid, giving the area plenty of traditional charm.
Daily life here is relaxed and community-oriented, with tree-lined residential side streets and nearby parks. Even though the borough stays secluded from busy traffic, getting around the West Shore is easy. Quick access to Gettysburg Pike and Route 15 puts major shopping plazas, restaurants, and regional commutes to Harrisburg or Carlisle within a short drive.
