Old Forge, PA Apartments for Rent
Old Forge, PA, has settled a debate no pizza lover expected — forget New York and Chicago, because this small Lackawanna County borough proudly holds the title of "Pizza Capital of the World." Established in 1899, Old Forge sits just two miles from downtown Scranton and about nine miles from Wilkes-Barre, making it easy to tap into the energy of two city centers while coming home to a quieter, close-knit community. The Lackawanna River traces the borough's southern edge, and the nearby Pocono Mountains put hiking, skiing, and fishing within easy reach on any given weekend.
Day-to-day life here moves at a comfortable pace, with local pizza cafés anchoring the social scene — where you order by the "tray" and ask for a "cut," not a slice. Renters will find a mix of traditional row houses, single-family conversions, and smaller apartment communities throughout the borough. The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport sits directly to the south, adding a layer of convenience for frequent travelers. Old Forge packs a surprising amount of character and accessibility into just four square miles.
