EspañolS.N.P.J., PENNSYLVANIA
'S.N.P.J.' is a borough located in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. As of 2000, the borough had a total population of 14. The 2000 census accidentally listed the population as zero.[1] It is the second-least populous municipality of any kind in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, after Centralia, Pennsylvania.
SNPJ's official name is 'The Borough of Slovenska Narodna Podporna Jednota'. ''Slovenska Narodna Podporna Jednota'' (Slovene National Benefit Society) is a fraternal society and financial co-operative based in Imperial, Pennsylvania.
The society applied to have their 500 acre (2 km²) recreation center in western Pennsylvania designated as a separate municipality in 1977. The S.N.P.J. borough was created so that the society could, among other things, get their own liquor license. North Beaver Township, Pennsylvania, the municipality in which the center was originally located, restricted the sale of alcohol.
S.N.P.J. is located at 40°55'44" North, 80°29'55" West (40.928916, -80.498828).
According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough has a total area of 1.8 km² (0.7 mi²), with 20 acres (0.08 km², 0.03 mi²) of the area covered by water.
The borough is more of a recreation complex than a borough, and has 60 rental cabins, 115 mobile home slots, a man-made lake and is open to the public as a summertime resort and facility for bingo, weddings and dances. Being a member of the society gets you a discount on the events.
As of 2000, 12 adults and two children reside in this borough.
