Recent USDA figures put the average value of farm real estate in Pennsylvania at about $8,490 an acre, which ranks 13 of the 48 states USDA tracks. The average hides a wide local range. Across Pennsylvania's 67 counties it runs from roughly $2,594 an acre in Cameron County up to $77,080 in Philadelphia County. Your parcel's number comes down to its county, access and acreage, which is exactly what our written offer is based on.
