Scranton is the sixth-largest city in Pennsylvania, and is most famous for its history as a center of American industry and manufacturing. There's a lot more to Scranton, however, with skiing, green spaces, and nature trails for outdoors types, as well as a thriving arts scene. In the center of town, lodging is mainly in purpose-built modern blocks. Larger house rentals are available on the edges of town, and are perhaps a better choice for groups of friends or family vacations.

There's no escaping Scranton's past as a center of American manufacturing and industry; the signs are everywhere you look.
