Its population was 7,093 people at the 2010 census. It is the principal borough in the ''Huntingdon, PA Micropolitan Statistical Area''.〔(Huntingdon County QuickFacts from the US Census Bureau ). Quickfacts.census.gov. Retrieved on 2013-07-23.〕 ==History== Huntingdon was settled in 1767 by the Rev. Dr. William Smith on the site of a famous Indian council ground, near the spot where Standing Stone Creek flows into the Juniata River. The spot was marked by the erection of a "Standing Stone Monument" erected at the borough centennial and rumored to exist before the founding of the original village which was called Standing Stone. The land was purchased by Smith in 1766 for 300 British pounds. He later renamed the settlement in honor of Selina, the Countess of Huntingdon, England. The original charter of incorporation to a borough was adopted in 1796. In 1900, Huntingdon was the home of 6,053 people; in 1910, 6,861 people; and in 1940, 7,170 people.
