What it’s like
The place. Equinunk is a small village in Wayne County, in the northeastern part of Pennsylvania, set among hills near the upper Delaware River. Across the county, most homes are lived in by their owners, and the typical resident is older than most Americans. Winters are cold and snowy, summers are warm, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in the building trades, or in restaurants, hotels and entertainment. Across the county, jobs grew over the past year and unemployment is lower than it was a year earlier. Fewer adults hold a four-year degree than in the country as a whole, and fewer people work from home.
Things to do. The East Branch Delaware River is a short drive away, a river for a day spent by the water. The West Branch Delaware River is also a short drive away, and the Lackawaxen River lies a longer drive off for those who want to go further.

Natural hazards
- Strong windRelatively moderate
FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Wayne County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Wayne County.
