Tharptown, PA

united states

Tharptown is a small Northumberland County community of 358 people in central Pennsylvania's coal country. Access requires state routes from I-80, typically via PA Route 54 and local roads from Sunbury, about 15 minutes south. The rural location means limited services, so EV drivers should charge in larger towns. The area retains classic Pennsylvania coal region architecture with steep-roofed homes dotting the small valleys.
