Living in Lenkerville, PA: what to set up and who to call

Lenkerville has no town government of its own, so Dauphin County runs its elections and most services, and its children attend Millersburg Area School District. Tap water in Lenkerville comes from Millersburg Water Auth, which has a clean five-year EPA record (about 20% of systems its size had a health-based violation) and a latest lead result below detection.

Lenkerville has no town government. It’s a census-designated place in Dauphin County, so the county and regional agencies provide most services. This page answers what we can; the same answers appear on Lenkerville’s town page under “Getting set up”.
