What it’s like
The place. Windsor is a small borough in York County, Pennsylvania. Its residents are younger than in most places, and incomes in the town run below the county's. Few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and a fair amount of snow, and summers turn properly warm by July. Precipitation is generous across the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, retail and professional and business services also employing many. Across York County, some of the largest workplaces are York Hospital, BAE Systems and Harley-Davidson. A typical commute is moderate in length, and only a small share of people work from home.
Things to do. A short drive away, Samuel S. Lewis State Park is a protected area for walking and time outdoors, and the National Watch and Clock Museum suits a quieter afternoon indoors. For a bigger day out, Hersheypark is an amusement park a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Windsor’s census tracts, 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 York County and the York-Hanover, PA metro.
