About Dickson City

Nestled in the northeastern corner of Pennsylvania, Dickson City is located 129 miles northeast of Harrisburg and 130 miles northwest of Philadelphia. Although the city once had a population over 12,000 during the peak of the coal mining days, only 6,000 residents remain today. Nevertheless, Dickson City still provides affordable and plentiful housing with a rich heritage and strong community identity. Residents of a Dickson City house or apartment for rent also take advantage of the city’s big-box retailers available locally, unusual for a community of its size.

Business Route 6 and the Viewmont Mall are Dickson City’s primary retail areas. The city also boasts northeastern Pennsylvania's first Starbucks location. Main Street, although slightly older in appearance, offers a variety of local shops and restaurants and is a favorite amongst locals looking to relax on the weekends. Residents of an apartment or home rental in Dickson City are also looking forward to a municipal golf course that is in the planning stage and will take the place of an old coal mine that once stood at the edge of the city.
