1. About Millerstown
While the mural refers to Millerstown as a town, it is formally organized as a borough within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. There is only one municipality organized under the town language, Bloomsburg. However, Pennsylvania's boroughs match to the town language in much of the rest of the country.
