Scranton was the first city in the United States to adopt electric street cars, rightfully earning the nickname of the Electric City. Incorporated in 1856, Scranton touts a rich past as an industrial center, and maintains a sense of historic charm to this day with numerous museums and historical sites to explore.

But Scranton isn’t all history. A vibrant downtown offers plenty of modern delights—from exciting eateries and cafes to unique boutiques and art galleries. In addition to the urban vibe of its walkable downtown, Scranton also provides a small-town sense of community. Residents often come together for local events such as the Scranton Jazz Festival and First Friday Scranton.

Connecting with nature is easy in Scranton, with more than 70 miles of walking and biking paths on the Lackawanna River Heritage Trail and endless opportunities for outdoor recreation at the sprawling Nay Aug Park. Scranton is also located within minutes of the Pocono Mountains.
