Akeley, Pennsylvania facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Akeley is a small, quiet place in Pennsylvania, United States. It's known as an "unincorporated community," which means it's a group of homes and businesses that isn't officially a city or town with its own local government. Instead, it's part of a larger area called Pine Grove Township in Warren County.

Discovering Akeley

Akeley sits high up, about 1,240 feet (378 meters) above sea level. This makes it a pretty elevated spot in the region. It's located just north of another similar community called Russell.

A Quiet Community

Because Akeley is an unincorporated community, it doesn't have its own mayor or town council. Decisions for the area are usually made by the government of Pine Grove Township. This setup is common for many small communities across the United States.

Population Facts

During the 2010 census, no specific population count was recorded for Akeley itself. This often happens with very small or unincorporated communities, where residents are counted as part of the larger township or county.
