Why Live in Olyphant

Olyphant, PA, located in Lackawanna County, combines small-town charm with an industrial backdrop. The borough, historically known as the Queen City, has undergone revitalization, driven by passionate female business owners. Downtown features a mix of historical and contemporary architecture, with clocktowers and spires reminiscent of a New England skyline. Traditional-style homes, built from the early 1900s to post-2000, are common, with single and two-story options, and occasional three-story homes with basements. Most properties have driveways, reducing street parking issues. The area is somewhat walkable and bikeable, with sidewalks lining almost every street. Local businesses, such as OTOWN Bar & Grill, Hair of the Dog Groomers, and female-owned boutiques like TagsOn and TheKimmy, contribute to the community's vibrant atmosphere. Third Thursdays bring live music, art walks, and activities downtown, while the Queen City Station hosts rail events like the St. Patrick’s Day Parade Train. Parks such as Fern Hill Park and Condella Park offer playgrounds, sports facilities, and access to the Lackawanna River Heritage Trail. Olyphant is a few miles north of Scranton, with COLTS transit and Route 6 providing easy travel options. The Wilkes-Barre Scranton International Airport is 14 miles southwest. However, air quality can be a concern due to factory emissions, and many streets have potholes needing repair.
