Your Local Guide to Hershey, PA

Hershey is in Derry Township, Dauphin County, just west of the Lebanon County line. It's one of the most sought-after places to live in Central PA, with tree-lined streets, a walkable downtown along Chocolate Avenue, and a strong job base anchored by The Hershey Company and Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. Homes range from classic older houses near downtown to newer neighborhoods and larger homes across the township.

Schools. Derry Township School District. I'll always confirm the district for any home you're looking at.

Getting around. US-322 and US-422 run through the area. Harrisburg is about 20 minutes west, and Annville and Palmyra are just a few minutes east.

Things locals love. Hersheypark, Hershey Gardens, the Hershey Theatre, concerts and games at the Giant Center, and plenty of parks and trails.

Why buyers like it. Great schools, short commutes to the Medical Center and Harrisburg, and homes that hold their value. If Hershey prices stretch your budget, I'll also show you nearby Palmyra, Annville and Hummelstown, where you can often get more house for the money just minutes away.
