Fairplay lies near Pennsylvania’s southern border with Maryland, amid the rolling farmland and wooded ridges of the state’s south-central interior. The Mason–Dixon Line runs just south of the community, a boundary surveyed in the 1760s that remains one of the best-known geographic markers in the United States. Fairplay is in Adams County, where orchards and working farms shape the rural economy, while Gettysburg—site of the pivotal 1863 Civil War battle—lies to the northeast. Local roads link small settlements and farm country with the wider Appalachian region, far from the density of Pennsylvania’s largest cities.
