At the junction of the I-81 and I-476 is the town of Moosic, home to almost 6,000 residents. Part of Lackawanna County, Moosic is 6 miles south of Scranton, the nearest sizeable city, although it is also 120 miles north of Philadelphia. A former coal-mining region on the Lackawanna River, the town has seen its largest industry decline to almost nothing, but has recovered well since the devaluation of coal. Residents of a Moosic house or apartment for rent can find work in town at companies like Bank of America, Cigna, Prudential, and Metlife that have offices in the area. Most residents, however, commute to Scranton for work and an elite few take the train into Philadelphia every day.
North of Moosic is the Toyota Pavilion and Sno Mountain Ski Resort, a favorite winter destination. The Shoppes at Montage was completed in 2007 and provides Moosic’s residents with over 40 stores, retailers, and restaurants. Residents of an apartment or home for rent in Moosic enjoy the quiet streets and relatively affluent properties that surround them in the community, but at the same treasure the commercial resources available so nearby. The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport, outside of the Moosic area, but only a few minutes away, also serves the wealthy and upscale Glenmaura gated community in which many CEOs reside and take private airplanes into the Philly area.
