Overview
Many people may not know that Pennsylvania is considered one of the most retirement-friendly states in America. Retirees and working active adults choose to settle in Pennsylvania s age-restricted communities because of the affordable cost of living and tax-friendly retirement. There are a ton of active adult communities in Pennsylvania that range from small 50-home neighborhoods to award winning communities with over 500 homes. Many of Pennsylvania s 55+ communities offer great amenities, active lifestyles, and convenient locations.
Climate & Geography
Located in the Northeastern area of the United States, Pennsylvania is bordered by Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and Lake Erie. The state has 51 miles of shoreline along Lake Erie and 57 miles of shoreline along the Delaware Estuary. Also, the Appalachian Mountains run throughout the middle of the state. Its five main regions are identified as the Allegheny Plateau, Ridge and Valley, Atlantic Coastal Plain, Piedmont, and the Erie Plain.
Generally, the entire state has cold winters and humid summers. But varied landscape produces a variety of climates throughout the state. The majority of Pennsylvania has a humid continental climate while the greater Philadelphia area has a humid subtropical climate. Inland, closer to the mountains, the winter is noticeably colder with cloudier days and more snowfall. Farther west, near Lake Erie, sees about 100 inches of snowfall yearly.
Recreation, Culture & Entertainment
The cities of Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Allentown, and Erie are the four most popular cities with plenty of attractions and entertainment options. Pennsylvania is home to dozens of professional sports teams including the Pittsburgh Steelers (football), Philadelphia Eagles (football), Philadelphia Phillies (baseball), Pittsburgh Pirates (baseball), Philadelphia 76ers (basketball), Philadelphia Flyers (hockey), Pittsburgh Penguins (hockey), and Philadelphia Union (soccer).
As one of the original 13 states of the United States, Pennsylvania is filled with rich history and cultural attractions. There are 165 historic landmarks throughout the state.
