From Wikipedia:
Harrisburg is the capital city of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the county seat of Dauphin County. With a population of 50,099 as of the 2020 census, Harrisburg is the 15th largest city in Pennsylvania (the 9th largest including townships and boroughs).
Harrisburg lies on the east bank of the Susquehanna River. It is the larger of the two anchor cities of the Harrisburg-Carlisle metropolitan statistical area, also known as the Susquehanna Valley, which had a 2020 population of 591,712, making it the fourth most populous metropolitan area in Pennsylvania after the Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Lehigh Valley metropolitan areas.
Harrisburg played a role in American history during the Westward Migration, the American Civil War and the Industrial Revolution. During part of the 19th century, the building of the Pennsylvania Canal, and later the Pennsylvania Railroad, allowed Harrisburg to become one of the most industrialized cities in the Northeastern United States. In the mid-to-late 20th century, the city's economic fortunes fluctuated with its major industries consisting of government, heavy manufacturing, agriculture, and food services (nearby Hershey is home of the chocolate maker, located just 10 miles (16 km) east).
The Pennsylvania Farm Show, the largest indoor agriculture exposition in the United States, was first held in Harrisburg in 1917 and has been held there every early-to-mid January since then. The city also hosts the annual Great American Outdoor Show, the largest of its kind in the world, among many other events. Harrisburg is also known for the Three Mile Island accident, which occurred on March 28, 1979, near Middletown.
In 2010 Forbes rated Harrisburg as the second best place in the U.S. to raise a family.[9] Despite the city's past financial troubles, in 2010 The Daily Beast website ranked 20 metropolitan areas across the country as being recession-proof, and the Harrisburg region was ranked 7th.[10] The financial stability of the region is in part due to the high concentration of state and federal government agencies.
Harrisburg is located 83 miles (134 km) miles southwest of Allentown, Pennsylvania's third largest city, and 107 miles (172 km) northwest of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania's largest city.
I watch most of the videos and it’s really relaxing and it makes me want to travel and be on the road.
Congrats on 20K Subscribers Mike!
Thanks!!
Downtown Harrisburg reminds me of New York
Nice shot of the state capitol.wow!!.was hoping you,d cross that bridge!!!..lol.
Nice ride in Harrisburg PA
My wife's extended family is in and around Halifax, PA, so we used to drive through Harrisburg on our way to and back from the DC area. Front Street was a well travelled, lovely drive, but the parallel 2nd street was, like in your video, always a mess. (these days, we come up us15, the take PA581 west to I81, the go west on US22, so bypassing downtown Hburg altogether.)
drove past the really nice Whitaker Center Science Museum, and the very interesting Harrisburg University of Science and Tech, which is all in one high-rise building. We toured it with my daughter a few years ago and were very impressed. (but the housing wasn't very good and no dining hall at all.)
Interesting that it's faster to go that way than 83 through Harrisburg. I'm guessing the southern part of the beltway is usually busy?
@@MileageMikeTravels pretty much, yes. pa581 the other way to I83 is pretty much always terrible. full of those merge-or-die exits and local traffic.
love the historic buildings
Great 👍
Wish we saw Cameron St. We see the Capital/uptown and midtown of Harrisburg in the video. Cameron st. is an industrial road/connection for major highways that seriously divides residential and car traffic in the city. The capital district is either populated by through traffic or commuters, where as east of Cameron is mainly residential traffic, (poor) public transit, or walking paths/sidewalks. All in all, all major roads in the city all quite literally lead of of Harrisburg.
Lol, did you hear that student driver peel out of that parking spot? 😂😂😂
lil busy downtown
Nice
I Use to Live There
beautiful building s
Thanks, Mike . you sure get around . Too many multi family houses. This town must be overpopulated and traffic must be horrendous.
What’s with the Andy Griffith whistle at about 3:03? Was it outside where you were?
Yeah it was coming from somewhere I was driving by. Couldn't figure out exactly where.
Yo vivi hay como dos años y tengo tantos recuerdos lindos de mi niñez que yo no me muero sin antes visitarlo
It doesn't really look like a small city
Nice
