    Wyoming County, Pennsylvania is a rural county located in the northeastern part of the state. The geography is characterized by rolling hills, forests, and the Susquehanna River, which provides scenic views and ample opportunities for outdoor recreation. The climate is continental, with warm summers and cold, snowy winters. The population is around 27,000, with a median age of 43 and a predominantly white demographic. The economy is largely driven by agriculture, manufacturing, and tourism, with a job market that can be limited in some areas. The cost of living is relatively low compared to the national average, and the housing market offers affordable options, though the selection may be limited. The education system includes several public school districts and a community college, providing K-12 and higher education opportunities. Healthcare facilities are available, but access to specialized services may require travel to larger cities. Cultural attractions are limited, but the area offers natural amenities like state parks and hiking trails. The transportation infrastructure is primarily focused on roads, with limited public transit options. Crime rates are generally low, contributing to a safe and tight-knit community atmosphere. Overall, Wyoming County offers a peaceful, rural lifestyle with access to outdoor recreation, but may lack some of the amenities and job opportunities found in more urban areas.
