Selling Your Home in Elizabethville, PA
Elizabethville sits in the Lykens Valley of northern Dauphin County, where U.S. Route 209 meets PA Route 225 — about 26 miles from Harrisburg, 8 miles from Millersburg and 9 miles from Halifax. Founded in 1817 and named for the founder’s wife, the borough still proudly calls itself “The Star of the Valley.”
Small-town life between the ridges
Tucked between scenic mountain ranges, Elizabethville has everything that makes a small town work: a public library, a volunteer fire company, churches of many denominations, banks and local businesses. Each October, families line the streets for the borough’s Halloween parade. Students attend the Upper Dauphin Area School District, which serves the boroughs and townships of the upper valley.
Who’s buying here
About 1,350 people live in the borough, in roughly 530 households averaging about 2.5 people each, with a median age around 40. It’s a mix of longtime valley families, young households getting started and empty-nesters who want to stay close to home, plus commuters who like being within reach of Harrisburg. The wider Lykens Valley is also home to an Amish community, so Plain families looking for farms, shops and land are part of the picture too.
