About Richland

Richland is a borough in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania. It is part of the Lebanon County, Pennsylvania metropolitan statistical area. The population was 1,490 at the 2020 census.

Richland has an active railroad crossing that intersects the town square. The two streets that comprise the square, Main Street and Race Street, are the only streets linking the northern and southern portions of the borough. As a result, the crossing can divide the entire town. This quirk has earned Richland mentions in Ripley's Believe It or Not! books and on the televised game show, Jeopardy!.
