About Hershey

Originally named Derry Church, the city was renamed Hershey in 1906 when Hershey's Chocolate gained worldwide popularity. For this reason, the city is popularly called “Chocolatetown, USA.” Only 13 miles east of Harrisburg, the town of 13,000 residents is conveniently located near a big city while maintaining its own unique charm. Besides wonderful chocolate and candy, residents of an apartment or home rental in Hershey find that the community provides friendly neighbors, family events, and a nurturing heritage. The Pennsylvania State Police Academy calls Hershey home and provides a steady stream of new residents to the area.

The American Hockey League Hershey Bears are based in the city and provide residents of a Hershey house or apartment for rent with exciting seasons year after year. Due to the large influence of the Hershey Company on the city, a wide variety of landmarks, attractions, and facilities are provided for residents to use for free. Some of these places include GIANT Center, Hershey's Chocolate World, Hersheypark Arena, Hersheypark Stadium, Hershey Gardens, Hotel Hershey, Hershey Museum, Hersheypark, The Hershey Lodge, Milton Hershey School, and Hershey Area Playhouse. ZooAmerica is also located in Hershey.
