Spotlight on Swatara Township: Where Accessibility Meets Opportunity in Central PA

Located just south of Harrisburg, Swatara Township is a strategic commercial hub within Dauphin County—offering businesses a powerful combination of visibility, access, and affordability. From highway-fronting retail land to move-in-ready office space, this township is well-positioned for long-term growth and short-term results.

At The Bill Gladstone Group of NAI CIR, we’re seeing continued interest from business owners, investors, and developers looking to capitalize on Swatara Township’s central location, infrastructure, and flexibility.

Why Swatara Township Works

With a population of over 27,000 residents, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, Swatara Township serves as both a residential community and a commercial throughway. It borders Harrisburg City, Lower Paxton Township, and Steelton, and includes key retail destinations such as the Harrisburg Mall area and Eisenhower Boulevard corridor.

The township offers easy access to I-83, I-283, and the PA Turnpike, making it a prime location for logistics, hospitality, retail, and office users. Development initiatives highlighted on the Swatara Township municipal site continue to support smart growth, while proximity to the Capital Region Water infrastructure and Harrisburg International Airport adds to the area’s commercial appeal.
