Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania is a state located in the north-eastern and Mid-Atlantic regions in the United States. The Appalachian Mountains run through its middle. Pennsylvania is the 33rd largest, 6th most populous and the 9th most densely populated of the 50 states. The states 5 most populous cities are Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Allentown, Erie, and Reading. The state capital is Harrisburg. Pennsylvania has 140 miles of shoreline along Lake Erie and the Delaware Estuary. The Unites States Bureau estimates the population of Pennsylvania was 12,802,503 a 0.79 % increase since 2010 unites States Census.  Philadelphia in the southeast corner, Pittsburgh in the southwest corner, Erie in the northwest corner, Scranton-Wilkes-Barre in the northeast corner, and Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton in the east central region are urban manufacturing centers. Much of the Commonwealth is rural; this dichotomy affects state politics as well as the state economy. Philadelphia is home to six Fortune 500 companies, with more located in suburbs like King of Prussia; it is a leader in the financial  and insurance industry.The first nationally chartered bank in the United States, the Bank of North America, was founded in 1781 in Philadelphia. After a series of mergers, the Bank of North America is part of Wells Fargo, which uses national charter 1.

I selected this place because a friend of mine lived in Pennsylvania. She said it was better there then here. I wanted to know more about it, she says it's greener over there. There is more freedom and not needing to worry.
