A rural township bordered by the river

The West Branch Susquehanna River flows around Clinton on three sides, separating the township from much of the Williamsport, Pennsylvania, region. The river is one of the primary natural features of Clinton, which is otherwise covered in mountainous forests and flat farmland. The river’s floodplains create fertile soil for agriculture, and the water presents opportunities for boating and paddling while also creating scenic backdrops for local businesses. Though Clinton is largely rural, it's home to schools and stores that prevent residents from having to drive to surrounding communities on a daily basis.

Golf course hosts disc golf, footgolf

Just a mile outside of Clinton in the borough of Montgomery, kids swing and climb alongside the river at Montgomery Park, where boarders roll up and down the skate park’s ramps. Boys and girls in Montgomery’s American Youth Soccer Organization group play games at the park’s soccer field. Another field behind Koppers Inc., a railroad equipment supplier in Clinton, also hosts games for the youth soccer program. On the township's west side, White Deer Golf Complex operates two public 18-hole courses, where golfers navigate waterways and dense tree groves. The complex also has courses for disc golf and footgolf; the latter sport involves players attempting to land a soccer ball into a hole in as few kicks as possible.

Wine tastings with a view

Stores, bars and restaurants are concentrated along U.S. Route 15 and Pennsylvania Route 54. The latter is where residents can get groceries at Weis Markets, do additional shopping at Dollar General or pick up a pizza from Thad’s Place. Along Route 15, BJ’s Antiques and Garden Center sells home décor and furniture that range from classy to kitschy. There’s also Surplus Outlet grocery store and Pike Drive In Theatre, keeping the drive-in experience going since 1953. On the southern end of Clinton, Four Friends Vineyard operates a hillside wine-tasting room with views of the river.

Local churches are in or near the borough of Montgomery. Clinton Baptist Church was founded in 1830 and continues to hold weekly services nearly 200 years later. First United Methodist Church of Montgomery and New Covenant Assembly of God are within a mile of Clinton Baptist Church.

Pennsylvania Route 405 on the southeast side of the neighborhood is lined with an assortment of manufacturers and other industrial businesses. There’s also State Correctional Institution Muncy, which houses about 1,400 prisoners and Pennsylvania’s death row for women.

Festivities on the waterfront

Since 2022, kayakers and paddleboarders have floated from The Susquehanna Boat Club in Clinton down the river to Montgomery Park every June to kick off River Fest. Those who head down the river can find hidden tokens along the way; when they get to Montgomery Park, they can use the tokens at the various food and craft vendors. A lineup of bands play throughout the afternoon and evening. Further inland, an old schoolhouse is home to Oak Grove Community Center. People gather to buy breakfast plates that benefit local high school sports teams or to participate in auctions to raise money for community members facing medical issues. The community center also puts on holiday events, such as the annual Easter egg hunt.

Flood zones surround waterways

Most homes are on the outskirts of Montgomery, a neighboring borough. Ranch homes and Colonial Revivals are common, but some new traditional designs have been built in the last 15 years. Properties generally aren’t as large as nearby rural communities, as the median lot size is just under an acre. Some houses near the West Branch Susquehanna River and Black Hole Creek are in flood zones, so homebuyers there may be required by their mortgage lenders to have flood insurance. Houses with less than an acre of land typically cost between $150,000 and $350,000, and homes with acre-plus lots can be purchased for $250,000 to $450,000.

New junior and senior high school campus in the works

Montgomery Elementary School and Montgomery Junior/Senior High School share a campus in Clinton, near the boundary with Montgomery borough. Niche scores Montgomery Elementary a B and gives a B-minus to Montgomery Junior/Senior High School, which teaches seventh graders through 12th graders. The Montgomery Area School District has approved a new junior/senior high school campus to be built a mile north of the current building. Projected to open in 2026, the campus will go on the site of the existing Montgomery Area Sports Complex, which means the school will inherit athletic facilities including a football field, track, baseball field and five tennis courts. Property taxes in Clinton and other parts of the school district were hiked to help pay for the project. For example, a homeowner with a $200,000 house pays $670 more annually.

Highways connect to Williamsport, Muncy

Residents need cars to get around, and a series of highways connect to the rest of the Williamsport region. Route 15 leads to the city of Williamsport, 8 miles north of Clinton, while Route 54 passes through Montgomery. Route 405 extends eastward to the borough of Muncy, home to a few local restaurants. The highway continues east to Interstate 180, which provides a speedy way to travel throughout the Williamsport area.
