The Borough is uniquely located along the Allegheny River just south of the tri-county point of Allegheny, Armstrong and Westmorland counties, approximately 6 miles from Interstate 76. The current population (2023) is 4,187 people, and the Borough has seen a rise in younger demographics who have been attracted by the many modern amenities offered by the community.
