Clearfield, County seat in central Pennsylvania, United States.
Clearfield stretches along the West Branch of the Susquehanna River, with residential areas expanding from the central business district toward surrounding hills.
The settlement received its name in 1805 from natural meadows where Native Americans and bison created open spaces in the dense forest.
The Joseph and Elizabeth Shaw Public Library established in 1940 functions as a central resource center for education and community programs.
The borough administration office at 6 South Front Street manages municipal services and conducts council meetings every third Thursday of the month.
Four structures in Clearfield, including the County Courthouse, Dimeling Hotel, Old Town Historic District, and Thomas Murray House, hold National Historic Register status.
