Experts Pick the Loneliest City in Pennsylvania

A website has determined the loneliest city in Pennsylvania and it happens to be one of the biggest in the state.

And while that may seem contradictory, just because you live in a bustling area doesn't mean everyone is enjoying a vibrant social or personal life.

Editors at 247WallSt.com recently did a deep dive into a bunch of data to find the loneliest city in each state.

They took things like Census Bureau data into account, along with monthly gross rent, bachelor's degree attainment rates, etc.

And they were quick to point out that "loneliest" does not mean people are sitting at home alone every night, eating a bowl of chips while watching Jeopardy! (although many are). Being lonely could mean a number of things — you are just starting out on your own, you are out of a relationship, whatever.

Before we dive into Pennsylvania's home for the most people living in isolation, let's look at our neighbors.
