Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania

Lackawanna Location Map Pennsylvania

Lackawanna sits in northeastern Pennsylvania, just north of the Poconos. Scranton, the county seat, is the biggest city. Yeah, that Scranton from “The Office”.

Once upon a time, Lackawanna County was coal country. But lately, it’s reinventing itself with a focus on education, healthcare, and the arts. The county has a rich immigrant history, reflected in its food and festivals.

The Steamtown National Historic Site is a must-visit for train buffs. Outdoorsy types love to hike in Lackawanna State Park. Finally, the Electric City Trolley Museum pays homage to the area’s transportation history.
