The population was 8,238 at the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]].<ref name="2020 Census (City)">{{cite web|title=Explore Census Data |url=https://data.census.gov/cedsci/profile?g=1600000US4233088 |publisher=[[United States Census Bureau]] |access-date=July 5, 2022}}</ref>

==History==
[[File:Battle of Crooked Billet Monument.jpg|thumb|[[Battle of Crooked Billet]] Monument]]
The town of Hatboro is located on land purchased from [[William Penn]] by the family of Nicholas More around 1705. The first land titles in town were issued in 1711. Original construction by early residents of the town occurred between 1715 and 1719. Early settlement pre-dating the Hatboro name occurred in the Crooked Billet area east of York Road, between Moreland Avenue and Byberry Road.

Early resident John Dawson entertained guests at the Crooked Billet Inn as well as manufacturing a line of hats. When the post office opened in 1809 the town was officially called Hatborough. U.S. [[Postmaster General]] [[John Wanamaker]] officially changed the name of the town in 1889 to Hatboro.

The [[Union Library Company]] of Hatboro, the third library company to be founded in Pennsylvania, was formed in 1755. This building still stands on its original site today and still serves as a library. [[George Washington]] and his troops passed through the town numerous times during 1777 in pursuit of British Troops. The [[Battle of Crooked Billet]] was fought in 1778.

The year 1811 saw the construction of the [[Loller Academy]], the first bank was built in 1873, and railroad service connected to Hatboro in 1874.<ref>{{cite book|title=Hatboro |publisher=[[Arcadia Publishing]] |year=2000 |isbn=0-7385-0342-8 }}</ref>
