About Wilkes-Barre:

Northeastern Pennsylvania is uniquely positioned in the most convenient location of the entire Northeast Megalopolis. In this region of more than 50 million residents stretching from D.C. to Boston, NEPA sits strategically in the middle. Major cities like New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Hartford connect directly to Northeastern Pennsylvania along five interstate highways. The area is only a short drive, two hours, from New York City and Philadelphia and also includes Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport offering easy access to major hubs around the U.S.

And aside from geographical evidence, there are dozens of multinational corporations currently calling Northeastern Pennsylvania home that would gladly attest to the region's status as one of the top business hubs in the nation. For more up to date information about the area, reference .
