  • Chapter Title
    Centre County Demographics and Travel Patterns The purpose of this chapter is to describe Centre County in terms of demographics, major and minor trip generators, planning and zoning, and travel patterns. This information, when considered relative to the inventory of available transportation modes in Centre County, helps to identify specific areas that present the greatest need for transportation improvements. The large land area of Centre County (almost 1,100 square miles), and the County’s mountain ridges and valleys impact the physical layout of transportation infrastructure. Demographic indicators must also be considered within the context of these geographic attributes. Within this chapter, socioeconomic data at the census tract level from the 2010 US Census, 2009-13 American Community Survey (ACS), and the information from Chamber of Business and Industry of Centre County (CBICC) is presented relative to the following categories: • Population and Density • Vehicle Availability • Income and Poverty • Labor Force and Unemployment • Public Assistance and SSI Income • Educational Attainment • Distribution of Jobs • Distribution of Age 65 and Older Population and Social Security Income • Distribution of Disabled Population • Housing Figure 2, which is a map of census tracts within Centre County, is presented on the following page.

  • Lock Haven PA Water Street Historic District
    Lock Haven PA Water Street Historic District The Water Street Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. Portions of the text below were adapted from a copy of the original nomination document. [ †] The lands between the West Branch of the Susquehanna River and the Bald Eagle Creek being especially desirable, due to their fertility and location, attracted those seeking frontier homes, and by 1800 there developed quite a prosperous settlement on the site of the present Lock Haven. Commercial lumbering was started about the time of the completion of the canal (1834). This industry grew in importance throughout the rest of the century. Most of the historic structures in this district remain on their original sites and are well-preserved. The most significant buildings are: The L. A. Mackey House, 1854, is a Federal-Tuscan Transitional, two-story, Flemish bond brick dwelling with the main section measuring 44.5' by 39.5'. The symmetric facade has five windows across the front, a bracketed cornice with dentils (which is carried along the sides of the building), a decorated frieze with five oblong windows, and a deeply recessed entrance with circular paneled door flanked by side lights and topped by a large rectangular space filled with a semi-circular window. This front entrance is framed with a hood supported by heavy brackets and topped with a balustraded balcony. There are twin chimneys in both gable ends of the main section of this building which is close to original and in excellent condition. The David Carskaddon Homestead, 1858, is an Italian Villa style, two-story dwelling, brick with stucco finish and constructed in the form of a Y.

  • Bald Eagle State Park
    Bald Eagle State Park Native Plant and Early-Successional Stage Habitat Restoration Project Cooperating Agencies: Bald Eagle State Park Native Plant and Early-Successional Stage Habitat Restoration Project Prepared by: Joel Rosak U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 315 S. Allen Street State College, PA 16801 With assistance from: William Palmer - Pennsylvania Game Commission Jim Barr and Steve Volgstadt - Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Mark Banker - Ruffed Grouse Society Dave Putnam, Kelly Williams, Shawna Barry, Adam Smith – U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 2 Bald Eagle State Park Bald Eagle State Park lies in the Bald Eagle Valley in Centre County, Pennsylvania. The Park, as well as the valley, creek, and mountain in this area were named after Chief Bald Eagle (Chief Woapalanne in his native tongue), a well-known chief of the Lenni Lenape Nation. He and his tribe inhabited the areas near Milesburg during the mid 1700’s (Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources 2002). Bald Eagle State Park lies on 5,900 acres developed adjacent to the Foster Joseph Sayers Dam. On July 4, 1971, the Bureau of State Parks signed a forty-year lease with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (C.O.E) for the use of the 5,900 acres. Since 1971, the Bureau of State Parks has been solely responsible for the capital development of the land (Pennsylvania Game Commission 1998). Parts of the 5,900 acres, located on both the north and south sides of the lake, are leased to the Pennsylvania Game Commission. Bald Eagle State Park offers a wide selection of recreational opportunities such as picnicking, camping, hunting, fishing, swimming, boating, water skiing, ice fishing, ice skating, cross country skiing, sled riding, and tobogganing.

  • Upper Bald Eagle Valley Region
    UPPER BALD EAGLE VALLEY REGION LABOR FORCE DATA Upper Bald Eagle Valley has a strong labor force. Unemployment rates are low for most of the munici- palities. Education levels for High School Graduates are higher than state and national levels, but per- centages of Bachelor’s Degrees or Higher are slightly lower in retrospect. The low mean travel times, high percentages of residents driving to work, and high number of people in the labor force suggest that this is a residential region where workers commute to outlying regions. This presumption is reinforced by the low unemployment rates.

  • Centre County Fact Sheets.Pub
    CENTRE COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA Centre County has an area of 1,115 square miles (fifth largest in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania) and a 2010 population of 153,990. The County’s geographic landscape is made up of two provinces, the Allegheny Plateau and the Ridge and Valleys. The Allegheny Plateau province is located northwest of the Bald Eagle Creek Valley. It consists of three distinct zones: eroded foothills along the base that form the boundary, the high rugged forested plateau with deeply incised streams, and troughs of bituminous coal. This area has lent itself to extractive industries including, lumbering, coal and clay mining, and natural gas production. The Ridge and Valley province is located to the southeast of the Bald Eagle Creek. It is characterized by broad, fertile limestone valleys and high forested ridges. Except for a piney sand barren present Captain James Potter, a British army officer in 1764.
