About Newport

Home to 1,500 Pennsylvanians in Perry County, the town of Newport is 28 miles outside of the state’s capital, Harrisburg. Distanced from other towns and cities, Newport’s residents enjoy a small town surrounded in tall trees and lush greenery, adding to the serene beauty of the Newport area. Primarily a residential neighborhood, most residents of an apartment or home rental in Newport commute to jobs in the city, either by driving on Highway 34 or taking the inexpensive commuter train that runs along the Juniata River and eventually the Susquehanna River.

Residents of a Newport house or apartment for rent can find a variety of things to do at the nearby Little Buffalo State Park where there is hiking, boating, swimming, biking, and horseback riding. The Newport Area School District operates only 3 schools, an elementary, middle, and high school campus. Fickes Field is the preferred sporting venue and includes multipurpose fields that are converted for different seasonal sports. The park also features large grandstands that line the fields. Veterans Memorial Park is another area favorite for its many jungle gyms, baseball diamonds, and interesting jogging trails that wind through the area.
