Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Clearfield sits in the geographic center of Pennsylvania and has the feel of a county that time passed by — the economy is declining coal and light manufacturing, the population is shrinking, and DuBois (actually in Clearfield County) is the main commercial hub. The social scene is minimal but DuBois does have a functional small-city infrastructure.
Lower score (below 6)
Clearfield County has almost nothing to offer an outsider socially. Curwensville and the surrounding river towns are economically depressed and socially closed. The county's population is shrinking steadily as young people leave and the demographic that stays is older and locally rooted. An outsider here has no obvious entry point and no social scene to plug into.
