Morgantown, Census-designated place in Caernarvon Township, Berks and Lancaster Counties, Pennsylvania.
Morgantown spans 1.14 square miles of land area at an elevation of 600 feet, straddling the border between Berks and Lancaster Counties.
Colonel Jacob Morgan established the settlement in 1770, constructing a stone house that later hosted George Washington during his travels through Pennsylvania.
The community maintains connections to both Pennsylvania Dutch traditions and modern manufacturing, with several industrial facilities operating within its boundaries.
The construction of Interstate 176 and Pennsylvania Turnpike improved transportation access, connecting residents to Reading, US 422, and PA 23.
The Hollywood Casino Morgantown, which started operations in December 2021, represents the newest addition to local entertainment facilities.
