Pike County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Pennsylvania. It is part of the Poconos region and the New York Metro Area and is known as the Tri-State area. Pike was named after General and explorer Zebulon Pike in 1814. The county seat is Milford. Pike has been known as a tourist destination for a century. Coal from the Anthracite coal mines in nearby counties was transported through the county by rail and canal until 1898. The canals are no longer used for coal, but they are a tourist attraction. The county’s eastern and northern borders are shared with New Jersey and New York and follow the Delaware River. Much of the western border flows along Wallenpaupack Creek and Lake Wallenpaupack, which is shared with Wayne County. Major routes in the area are Interstate 84, US Routes 6 and 209, PA Routes 390, 402, 434, 590, and 739. These routes provide quick travel opportunities to Allentown, New York, and Scranton.

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.
