Clifford and Susquehanna County
Clifford is associated with Susquehanna 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.
Clifford by land and water
The Census records 0.45 square miles of water within Clifford, or 1.1% of its total area. That share is close to Susquehanna County’s 1%. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Clifford township has 16.8 times the land area of nearby Union Dale borough (2.41 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
