A Cameron County township map answers two different questions around Prospect Park: which local township a property sits in, and where it falls on the survey grid. Below we sort out the kinds of townships in Cameron County and where to see each one.
Townships in Cameron County explained
In Pennsylvania, townships are local municipalities, so a property near Emporium is governed by its township or borough for things like zoning and local permits. Pennsylvania does not use the federal survey grid, so rural deeds near Driftwood describe land by metes and bounds rather than numbered survey townships.

If the official address for the Cameron County, PA map ever changes, our directory page carries the current link for Prospect Park and the rest of the county.
