Ridgway, Pennsylvania

Ridgway is a borough in Elk County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. The city population reference lists it among the incorporated places of Pennsylvania as a borough with Elk as its single county. Its census population was 4,815 in 1990 and 5,099 in 2000, then fell to 4,079 in 2010 and 4,028 at the 2020 census, and the estimate for July 2025 is 3,893, so the borough has lost residents in each report since the turn of the century. It is a small place by population, but it is a distinct incorporated municipality of its own and is recorded as such in the state table. Founding, name origin, landmarks and economy are not covered by this source and are left for later research.
