Cumberland County Government exists to serve its residents and provide the most livable community with the most efficient and effective public services in Pennsylvania. Cumberland County is a county located in South Central Pennsylvania that was formed January 27, 1750 from Lancaster county. Named for Cumberland County in England, it originally extended to Pennsylvania's western limits.
