About Shippensburg

Nestled in the beautiful Cumberland Valley, Shippensburg is characteristic of rolling terrain against a backdrop of low mountain rangs. Although notably supported by diversified manufacturing and agribusiness, farming is recognized as the foundation of Shippensburg's economy because of the fertile Cumberland Valley soil and its desirable climate.

Settled in the 1730's, Shippensburg offers a desirable balance of industry, agriculture and education all in one community.

Shippensburg was rated 27th in Norman Crampton's 1995 book, 100 Best Small Towns in America.
