The population was 193 at the 2010 census,[1] up from 150 at the 2000 census. HistoryAllen was first settled in the early nineteenth century. The first post office was named "Mouth of Beaver" and was established on August 21, 1854 (Thomas P. Johns, postmaster). The town began to develop rapidly {{circa|lk=no|1904-1905}} after the establishment of a Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad station. The station was interchangeably known as "Beaver Creek" and "Beaver Creek Junction".[3] In 1905, another post office opened and was named "Allen" after local resident T.J. Allen. The town was formally incorporated by the state assembly in 1913.[2] In 1936, the railroad station was renamed to prevent confusion during mail delivery. An area outside the city limits known as "New Allen" began to develop in 1937 after a bridge was constructed across the Levisa Fork River.[3] GeographyAllen is located north of the center of Floyd County at {{coord|37|36|48|N|82|43|33|W|type:city}} (37.613421, -82.725826).[4] It sits at the confluence of Beaver Creek with the Levisa Fork, a north-flowing tributary of the Big Sandy River and part of the Ohio River watershed. U.S. Routes 460 and 23 pass just north of Allen, leading northwest {{convert|5|mi|0}} to Prestonsburg, the county seat, and southeast {{convert|24|mi}} to Pikeville. According to the United States Census Bureau, Allen has a total area of {{convert|0.5|km2|order=flip|1}}, of which {{convert|0.04|sqkm|order=flip|2}}, or 7.06%, is water.[1] DemographicsAs of the census[5] of 2010, there were 193 people, 67 households residing in the city.
