Adrian is a small place located in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is known as an "unincorporated community." This means it's a neighborhood or village that doesn't have its own separate local government, like a city or town might. Instead, it's part of a larger area called East Franklin Township.
Adrian is about 4.8 miles (which is about 7.7 kilometers) north of a larger town called Kittanning. It has its own post office and a special code for mail delivery, which is ZIP code 16210. Adrian is also considered part of the larger Pittsburgh metropolitan area, which is a big group of cities and towns around the major city of Pittsburgh.
A Look Back in Time
Adrian has a bit of history to it. If you looked at an old map from 1876, specifically the "Atlas of Armstrong County, Pennsylvania," you would find this area listed as "Montgomeryville, Adrian P.O." This shows that the community had a slightly different name in the past, with "P.O." likely meaning "Post Office."
