Forksville is a tiny borough located in the state of Pennsylvania. With a population of 135 people and just one neighborhood, Forksville is the 1030th largest community in Pennsylvania. Much of the housing stock in Forksville was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic boroughs in the country.
Because occupations involving physical labor dominate the local economy, Forksville is generally considered to be a blue-collar town. 49.06% of the Forksville workforce is employed in blue-collar occupations, compared to the national average of 27.7%. Overall, Forksville is a borough of production and manufacturing workers, construction workers and builders, and service providers.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 21.70% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.
Forksville’s overall crime rate ranks among the lowest in the nation, making it a very safe place to live.
Residents will find that the borough is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Forksville is worth considering.
