Monroe County was named for President James Monroe in 1836. The county seat is Stroudsburg. Monroe County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Pennsylvania. It is near the New York City Metro Area. The county has been a tourist attraction for more than a century, and it was Quakers from Philadelphia who built the first resorts.

After decades in the business and managing billboard programs in top 10 markets, I still gravitate to value for my clients. As such, I absolutely love our Bus Shelter product, which offers small and mid-size businesses arguably the greatest value in all media at only $.50- $.75 cents per 1,000 impressions. Compare that to Direct Mail for instance. It’s like a 500 to 1 in terms of stronger inherent raw advertising value.
