What about the surrounding cities therein? I don't follow this comment. Sorry.

Scranton itself is a city, obviously, but there are several cities within a stones throw of the city limits. You can go through about 4 or 5 cities in about 20 minutes of driving. That's why a lot of people refer to everything as "Scranton" but really it's Scranton, Dickson City, Olyphant, Peckville, Moosic, Taylor, Old Forge, etc.

It's sort of like Jersey in the sense that there is a million towns in a very small area.

It's a city that used to be a small town surrounded by nearby small towns. Now they're all decent sized cities that bump up against each other. They're all known as Scranton but they're actually several different areas squished together.

A lot of places are like this.
