17361: Shrewsbury in Southern York County Today
Most of the story on our other Shrewsbury shirts is about 1834 and what came before it. This one is about now.
The ZIP That Covers More Than the Borough
17361 reaches past the borough line. Mail addressed to Shrewsbury lands in the borough itself and out across Shrewsbury Township, so plenty of people who say they are from Shrewsbury have never lived inside the one-square-mile-and-change of the borough proper.
A Town of Roughly 3,800
The 2020 census counted 3,848 people in Shrewsbury Borough across about 1,545 households, on a total area of 1.8 square miles. The median age was 47.5 — older than Pennsylvania as a whole, and a fair reflection of a town people move to and stay in.
Southern York County Schools
Shrewsbury sits in the Southern York County School District — Shrewsbury Elementary, Southern Middle School and Susquehannock High School, whose teams are the Warriors. The borough also has its own library, the Paul Smith Library of Southern York County.
Four Miles from Maryland
Shrewsbury sits a few miles north of the Maryland line, a mile west of I-83 Exit 4. That location is why a town of under four thousand people has the traffic, the commuters and the pass-through business that it does.
