[2] Fell Township's principal settlement is Simpson, as of 2010 home to 1,275 people, mostly middle age and elderly.

Although not usually considered by the locals, the upper part of Carbondale's West Side is actually in the southwestern corner of the township.

This area is home to a few hundred people, and is geographically separate from other settlements in Fell Township.

By 1974, the mansion was empty, and title of it and the surrounding property fell in the hands of the local volunteer fire company.

Fell Township also features the Lackawanna River, Panther's Creek, and many abandoned pits from strip mining.
