About Huntingdon

Almost halfway between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh, Huntingdon is situated at the intersection of Route 22 and Highway 26 about 100 miles from either city. Located along the Juniata River, Huntingdon has developed itself into a hub for agricultural and fruit-growing in the region although lucrative forests and deposits of iron, coal, fire clay, and limestone exist on the outskirts of the town. A population of almost 7,000 and many residents of a Huntingdon house or apartment for rent enjoy tight-knit neighborhoods that are distant from urban life and appreciate the values of rural living while maintaining many of the resources of a much larger city. Amtrak operates an impressive station in downtown Huntingdon with regional rail schedules to both the state’s capital and the steel capital as well as various other cities nearby.

The Huntingdon Area High School was recently remodeled in 2004 while the local elementary school was built in 1999, providing exceptionally modern facilities. The school district also operates a middle school in the area. Residents of an apartment or home rental in Huntingdon are also close to Juniata College in the northern portion of the city. Huntingdon’s residents eagerly anticipate annual community events including Mayfest, a Historic Downtown Huntingdon Community Concert Series, and Spikes Night with Huntingdon County. A Huntingdon Farmers Market is also held weekly. The Huntingdon Country Club maintains one of the best courses in the region.
