No, North Mammon is a fictional city that was created for Criminal Minds. According to the Criminal Minds Fan Wiki, it is implied that the town is located in Allegheny County. Allegheny County is a real county in Pennsylvania. You may know it for being the county where Pittsburgh is located. I have never seen it on the internet anywhere but I think that North Mammon represents Clairton PA. The football team's colors are black and orange. The Clairton Bears football team wear black and orange uniforms. North Mammon made the state championship in the episode. The Clairton Bears have won three consecutive state championships. Clairton is located in Allegheny County where football is what the town is all about like North Mammon. In the background of the North Mammon Police Office are smokestacks, suggesting that it could be a mill or steel town which Clairton is as well as other towns along the river.

DevinOh, honey, "North Mammon" sounds more like a place you'd find in a fantasy novel than a real city in Pennsylvania. Maybe double-check your spelling or try a different search because as far as I know, there's no such place as "North Mammon" in PA. But hey, if you find it, let me know - I could use a vacation to a new fictional town!
I’m from the Lehigh Valley, in Lehigh County, PA (southeastern). There is a small borough near my hometown called “Northampton.” 100% first thing I thought of when I saw the fictional town name. Also black and orange colors. When I was growing up there were a lot of recreational bonfires, especially during Halloween, homecomings and football szn. I believe there is also a Northampton county nearby. Crazy!

I believe there is also a Northampton county nearby. Crazy similar to the other user’s answer about Allegheny County and I’m convinced the closeness in the way the names of the two towns sound is not a coincidence!

They also mention Rittenhouse Square which is in or near Philadelphia and a closer distance to Northampton and the Lehigh Valley than the Pittsburgh area.
