      Clearfield is very pretty, and if you love the outdoors the woods are great for you! There isn't much going on for fun things to do though. Lots of fast food places and restraunts, but not much for things like shopping or amusement.

      Growing up in Clearfield County has been great. There are many shops and activities that make raising children a great and safe place!
      It's a nice place to raise a family. It's not a big city but small town, which is nice. There are many small, local stores to shop at and local restaurants with great good. One of the best parts about Clearfield is that it is surrounded by rivers, which is great for swimming, fishing and canoeing. There are also many parks, which is great for kids and dogs.
