Welcome to Red Lion, Pennsylvania

Welcome to the the official website for the Borough of Red Lion, Pennsylvania!

We are located in York County, approximately 35 miles south of Harrisburg, and 50 miles north of Baltimore, Maryland. The Borough of Red Lion was incorporated on January 16, 1880. Our population, according to the 2020 census, is 6,512. Red Lion has diverse manufacturing industries, including clothing, milling, plastics, steel fabrication, and many others. Although a healthy balance of industry and commerce exists, Red Lion has leaned toward a primarily residential community. One very important factor has remained constant over the years, and that is the pride of Red Lion’s people.
