THE SALEM LAND BRIEF

Land in the
Permian Hills setting.

Salem township has 25.8 square miles of land in Monroe County. Its Census reference point is in Permian Hills, within Western Allegheny Plateau.

Rounded wooded hills and intervening valleys form an unglaciated plateau landscape. Valley floors contain much of the region's open land, contrasting with its more forested slopes.

Regional context: Western Allegheny Plateau ↗ · Classification at the Census reference point

Salem and Monroe County

Salem is associated with Monroe County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.

Monroe County

Salem by land and water

The Census records 0.67 square miles of water within Salem, or 2.5% of its total area. It is 2.2 percentage points higher than the 0.4% recorded for Monroe County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Salem township has 24.7 times the land area of nearby Clarington village (1.04 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

FROM LOCAL CONTEXT TO YOUR PARCEL

Three questions for
Salem land.

These starting questions follow this location’s jurisdiction, regional setting, and nearby geography. The answers come from the property itself.

01

Locate the parcel within Salem

Use a tax bill, deed, or assessor’s parcel number to pin down the land in Salem. Check the Monroe County geography against the actual property location.

02

Read the Permian Hills setting

Permian Hills belongs to Western Allegheny Plateau. Does the surveyed tract include valley floor, hillside or both, and how does its road access reach each portion?

03

Check the route, beyond Clarington

Clarington is 1.8 miles northeast of the Salem reference point. That geographic proximity does not establish a drivable route or legal access. Which road reaches your land, and is the right to use it recorded?

QUESTIONS GROUNDED IN THIS PLACE

Your Salem
land questions.

Have a tax bill, an inherited deed, or simply a map pin? Start with what you have.

What should I send for land in Salem?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Monroe County. Salem’s 25.8 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Salem property in Permian Hills?+

No. Permian Hills is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Salem boundary and individual properties can cross landscape transitions. Open the regional source and the topographic map, then locate the actual parcel before applying regional context.

Can I use Clarington as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 1.8 miles northeast of Salem’s. That distance is not a driving route, utility connection, or comparable-sale adjustment. Share the actual access road and parcel records so we can review your property on its own facts.

Can I request an offer without being near Salem?+

Yes. Begin online with the property location and ownership details. Tell Larry G, The Landman and the team what you know about the land, access, and any co-owners. We review the parcel before deciding whether to propose a purchase; if a sale moves forward, the closing company can explain remote signing arrangements.
