Old Forge, Pennsylvania is known by locals (and pizza aficionados) as the pizza capital of the country, thanks to its proliferation of pizzerias, all of which sell the famous regional white cheese pizza.

Old Forge may sound like a historic tourist attraction filled with costumed reenactors, but it's actually a small borough that covers about 3.5 square miles with a population of 8,313, according to the 2010 census. What is important, however, is that it's the pizza capital of the world -- at least, according to fans of the Italian treat. This distinction was bestowed upon the town thanks to its popular Old Forge Style white piazza; a regional favorite, it begins with a mixture white cheeses layered on a thick, crispy crust that's topped with olive oil and rosemary leaves. Another reason for the title is that Main Street is literally (and overwhelmingly) lined with pizza joints. In fact, the local sport here is taste-testing, so if you love pizza -- and, honestly, who doesn't? -- you've found the perfect place to call home. Outside of pizza, this former textile/coal mining town is also home to quite a few famous singers, including movie and opera stars Alan Jones and Paul Plishka, and country star Rosalie Allen. The waters of nearby Lackawanna River must be good for the vocal cords. Old Forge is the kind of town where you'll see historic buildings on Main Street, and folks relaxing and enjoying an ice cream (or more likely, a slice of pizza) in the park, even during working hours.

Moving to Old Forge

Old Forge is located just off Interstate 81, so it's easy to get to by car or moving van. If you don't like slushy, icy roads, plan to move in the early fall, late spring or summer, because the area gets lots of snow during the winter months.
