Selling Real Estate in Lancaster County, PA
Lancaster County reaches from the Susquehanna River on its western edge toward the Chester and Berks County lines, with the city of Lancaster as its county seat. US 30, US 222 and PA 283 tie together farm townships and boroughs like Ephrata, Lititz, Elizabethtown, Manheim, New Holland, Strasburg and Quarryville, while the Conestoga River and Pequea Creek wind through the countryside. Organized in 1729 from part of Chester County, it remains one of Pennsylvania’s leading farm counties.
Farmland, Covered Bridges & Plain Country
Roughly 4,700 farms cover close to 380,000 acres, and the county is a national leader in farmland preservation, with more than 100,000 acres protected by conservation easements. Dairy, poultry, hogs and cattle drive the farm economy alongside fields of corn, hay and soybeans, and about 29 covered bridges still span the creeks. Lancaster County is home to the world’s largest Amish settlement as well as Old Order Mennonite and other Plain congregations, so family farms, home-based shops and small homesteads are woven into the landscape.
Who’s buying in Lancaster County
About 563,000 people call the county home, and roughly 70 percent of households own their homes. Buyers include Plain families looking for farms, shops and land, established operations adding acreage, commuters drawn by the US 30 and US 222 corridors and Amtrak Keystone service in Lancaster, and investors seeking rental and commercial property.
