About Stoystown

Stoystown is a quiet borough in Somerset County with around 300 residents, located about 20 miles south of Johnstown. Life here is peaceful and low-key, surrounded by open countryside and the scenic ridge lines of the Laurel Highlands. It began as an early mountain crossroads back in the 1700s, and today it remains a small, neighborly place with convenient access to Route 30 and nearby Somerset.
