Penn and Clearfield County
Penn is associated with Clearfield 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.
Penn by land and water
The Census records 0.11 square miles of water within Penn, or 0.5% of its total area. It is 0.4 percentage points lower than the 0.8% recorded for Clearfield County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Penn township has 85.5 times the land area of nearby Grampian borough (0.28 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
