Russell is a small community located in Pine Grove Township, Warren County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is not a big city but a quiet place where people live and work. Russell is known as an unincorporated community and a census-designated place. This means it's a recognized area for counting people, but it doesn't have its own separate local government like a city or town.

As of 2024, about 1,342 people call Russell home. It's a peaceful spot in the beautiful state of Pennsylvania.

Where is Russell Located?

A stream called Conewango Creek flows through the area. This creek helps drain water from the land around Russell. The elevation of Russell is about 1,250 feet (381 meters) above sea level. This means it's located in a slightly higher area, offering nice views of the surrounding countryside.
