| - Un township en el estado estadounidense de Pensilvania es una forma local de división territorial, inferior al condado, y distinto a otras entidades locales, como ciudades y boroughs. Es hasta cierto punto equivalente a los demás township de Estados Unidos. Los township de Pensilvania fueron creados basados en límites geográficos y varían entre 6 a 50 millas cuadradas (15–104 km²). Pensilvania cuenta con dos categorías de municipios, los de primera clase y los de segunda clase. Para convertirse en un township de primera clase, los township de segunda clase deben de tener una densidad poblacional de 300 hab./km² y los votantes deben aprobar esa clasificación por medio de un referéndum. Sin embargo, muchos township han preferido quedarse como township de segunda clase, a pesar de que consiguen llenar los requisitos de la densidad poblacional para convertirse en uno de primera clase.
