Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Philly cheese steaks and water ice are just two of the perks of moving to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. You'll be living in a city with a rich history, strong economy, and an ideal location along the East Coast. The city temporarily served as the United States capital in the 1790's, and politics and government continue to have a strong presence in the city today. Philadelphia, derived from the Greek words for City of Brotherly Love, claims to be "the city that loves you back " -- a city that welcomes visitors with open arms ensures it keeps a steady stream of Philadelphia moving companies heading its way

Economy: Philly's economy ranks high compared with other US cities' economic output. Philadelphia's economy is mainly composed of manufacturing, food processing, financial services, and various refining. The U.S. Mint operations and a Federal Reserve Bank currently reside in Philadelphia. Many law firms are also in Philadelphia including Morgan, Lewis and Bockius. Some major companies that reside in Philadelphia include Comcast, Sunoco, Pep Boys, Aramark, and GlaxoSmithKline.

Tourism: Philadelphia boasts a large tourist market because of its many attractions, especially its early colonial offerings. Independence National Historic Park features such significant structures as Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, Congress Hall, and Carpenters Hall. Other historic societies, including the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Academy of Natural Sciences, the American Philosophical Society, and the Science Museum of the Franklin Institute, date back to the 1800's and are popular places to visit. The largest city park in the country, Fairmount Park, includes the Philadelphia Museum of Art, gardens and other shrines and statues. Additionally, federal buildings such as the U.S. Mint, Federal Reserve, and Internal Revenue Service, are all in Philadelphia. Philadelphia also features several professional sports teams including the 76ers (NBA), the Phillies (MLB), the Philadelphia Eagles (NFL), and the Flyers (NHL), as well as numerous other professional and collegiate teams. The city can be reached through Philadelphia International Airport, as well as Trenton Mercer and McGuire Airports which lie outside of the city.

History: Originally, the Lenape Indians occupied what is now Philadelphia. The Swedish, Dutch and British also claimed it before the area was acquired by William Penn who founded Philadelphia in 1682. The city was intended as a peaceful refuge for Quakers, and was sometimes called Quaker City. In its early years, Philadelphia served as the national capital, state capital, and location of the two national banks for a few years each. The World's Fair was hosted in Philadelphia in 1876, which showed off the expansion of the city at the time. Philadelphia also was connected by railroads early on with the Baldwin Locomotive Works and Pennsylvania Railroad, two of the largest railroad companies at the time, located in the city. The city suffered social and economic difficulties throughout the 60's and 70's. Examples of this include race riots and a declining population. In recent years, new construction has gone outside of the center of the city, but the city skyline has also been revamped as well.
