Generally Investor friendly
Bellefonte explicitly permits new STRs in R‑4 and commercial districts with a clear 30‑day approval, low initial fee ($50) and moderate annual renewal ($130), and no nightly caps, but grandfathered R‑1/R‑2 units face a 60‑night limit and operators must comply with parking caps and hotel tax collection, creating moderate but manageable compliance.

Bellefonte is a borough in, and the county seat of, Centre County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is approximately twelve miles northeast of State College and is part of the State College, Pennsylvania metropolitan statistical area. The borough population was 6,187 at the 2010 census. It houses the Centre County Courthouse, located downtown on the diamond. Bellefonte has also been home to five of Pennsylvania's governors, as well as two other governors. All seven are commemorated in a monument located at Talleyrand Park.
The town features many examples of Victorian architecture. It is also home to the natural spring, "la belle fonte". bestowed by Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord during a land-speculation visit to central Pennsylvania in the 1790, from which the town derives its name. The spring, which serves as the town's water supply, has since been covered to comply with DEP water purity laws.
The early development of Bellefonte had been as a "natural town." It started with one house and a crossroad, then iron was found and the town grew.
