Cranberry and Venango County
Cranberry is associated with Venango 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.
Cranberry by land and water
The Census records 0.22 square miles of water within Cranberry, or 0.3% of its total area. It is 0.9 percentage points lower than the 1.3% recorded for Venango County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
