About Philadelphia PA

The largest city in Pennsylvania, and the fifth-most populous city in the United States, Philadelphia is home to 7.2 million individuals and has a large number of outlying communities that are included in its statistical area. Founded by William Penn in the late 17th century, the city initially served as the capital of the Pennsylvania colony, and later served as the temporary capital of the nation while Washington D.C. was under construction. Though it experienced a loss of manufacturing in the 20th century, it was revitalized in the 1990's which reversed a decades-long population loss. It has become both an economic hub and a destination for higher education, with a gross domestic product of $3888 billion. It has become a center for art and culture, with a number of theaters, galleries, music halls and museums spread across the city. It is also a historic city, with 67 National Historic Landmarks that generate a great deal of tourism. The City of Brotherly Love claims a number of historical firsts, including the first library, hospital, medical school, capitol, stock exchange, and zoo.
