Middletown's name was given back in the 1700s because it was halfway between, or in the middle of, the region's two major commercial cities of Carlisle and Lancaster. How's that for a literal name?
Like many cities in Pennsylvania, Middletown is a bit older-it was officially incorporated in 1828. It is the oldest incorporated community in its county (Dauphin), and it's anchored by Harrisburg (the state's capital city) to the northwest and Hershey to the northeast. See more
