Avoca, PA

United States

This small Pennsylvania borough sits between Scranton and Wilkes-Barre along Interstate 81, making it a convenient stop for travelers heading through northeastern Pennsylvania. The town connects easily to both cities via I-81 and Route 6, with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport about 15 miles away. Most visitors pass through on longer trips between New York City and points north, though the area serves daily commuters throughout the Wyoming Valley. The historic train station stands as a reminder of Avoca's role as an important railroad stop on the old Delaware, Lackawanna and Western line.
