Hampden Township, PA Facts.
Hampden Township was settled 1845 (settled 1731), with a population of 32,762 (2020 census), the largest municipality by population in Cumberland County. It borders Silver Spring Township to the north, Shiremanstown and Camp Hill to the east. The area's best-known landmark is Historic Peace Church (cornerstone laid 1798) and the Johannes Eberly House.
Hampden was settled in 1731 and incorporated in 1845, and the Historic Peace Church, its cornerstone laid in 1798, served as the area's community center well before the township itself existed. The Conodoguinet Creek does not run straight through Hampden. It bends repeatedly across the middle of the township on its way east, which is exactly why certain streets near those bends see recurring spring groundwater problems that a straight-line creek town would not. The Johannes Eberly House connects the township to real Civil War history. Confederate cavalry under Albert Jenkins raided through the area in June 1863, and the actual engagement, the Skirmish of Sporting Hill, played out on the west side of Camp Hill along this township's edge, not inside Mechanicsburg borough itself. That is a detail worth getting right, rather than repeating the more common but geographically loose version of the story. Today, the township's population (over 32,000) makes it the largest in the county by a wide margin, and that scale shows up in call volume more than in any single unusual plumbing quirk.
Ever Grain Brewing Company, a real local landmark along Good Hope Road, sits in one of the township's more established commercial corridors, and the surrounding residential streets date from a range of decades rather than one single building boom. That is part of why pipe material varies block to block here more than it does in a township built out all at once.
For anyone on the lower-lying streets near the creek, a sump pump inspection ahead of spring rain season is worth scheduling proactively, rather than waiting for the first wet basement to force the issue. A basement that has already flooded before may also need restoration work alongside the drainage fix.
