The State College area is one of the best places in the country to live and raise a family. Four towns in Centre County were named among the 2018 list of Pennsylvania's "30 Best Places to Live," while State College itself ranks among the top five percent for best public school systems, best places to live, and best places to raise a family.
The town offers a safe environment, outdoor recreation opportunities in a breathtaking landscape, collegiate athletics, and world-class entertainment venues, among numerous other benefits. Our community reflects both the diversity of a global Research 1 university and the warmth and small-town feel of a region where people get to know their neighbors and put down roots for generations.
For healthcare, Mount Nittany hospital is right next to campus, and there are medical facilities for nearly every major specialty in the area. In addition to all this, the cost of living in State College is comfortable, with median house prices hovering around $240,000.
We know you’ll learn to love Happy Valley, and we can’t wait to welcome you to the neighborhood.
