Homes and buildings in Elizabethtown

About 69% of homes in Elizabethtown were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1963. Buildings that age often still have older single-pane glass and worn aluminum frames, so loose panes, failing seals and tired door hardware come up a lot. More homes here went up before 1940 than in any other period. That makes its housing newer than about 85% of Pennsylvania towns its size.

About 28% of homes are in apartment buildings, where one failed window or sticking entry door affects a whole building's upkeep. About 54% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
