Reading Overview

The fifth-largest city in the state of Pennsylvania, Reading is a blue collar destination that is home to over 85,000 welcoming residents. Known affectionately as 'The Pretzel City' thanks to its abundance of bakeries, Reading is situated midway between the hubs of Philadelphia and Harrisburgh. 

What is the history of Reading?

As early as 1743, the city of Reading was beginning to take shape, and the region acted as a major producer of iron during the American Revolution. The completion of the Schuylkill Canal in 1825 added new options for connecting to Philadelphia, and the Reading Railroad soon followed. Automobile manufacturing helped spurn the city forward, an through the 1950s Reading remained one of the fastest-growing cities in the nation. Despite some economic downturn in the 1980s-90s, the city is once again on the upward swing, recently being dubbed an 'Up and Coming City' by NBC's 'Today' show.

How is the weather in Reading?

Those calling Reading apartments home can expect four distinct seasons, including a typically cold winter and birght, sunny summers marked by temps in the 80s and 90s. Spring is the wettest season, with yearly precipiation totals averaging around 40 inches, and autumn tends to be mild and pleasant, highlighted by explosive leaf colorations. 

How do I get around town?

The Berks Area Regional Transportation system supplies over fifty buses for use in the city, although rail service is largely reserved for freight as opposed to commuters. Most residents of Reading apartments rely on a private car or truck for getting around on the daily, with the Reading Regional Airport mainly serving private craft. Philadelphia's airport acts as the largest and most popular commercial flight center in the region.

What is the Reading commute like?

US Route 422 is the most widely used major roadway in the region, and Interstate 76 as well as PA Route 12 both act as supplemental options for those commuting to nearby job markets. 422 tends to clog during peak commuter hours, and those running the 9-to-5 would do well to allow some extra time to get where you they need to be. Morgantown Road is a major 'main street' in the city proper, and as a general rule traffic tends to flow fairly well on most days.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Reading Eagle' is a primary news source in the city, and those calling Reading rentals home can enjoy a wide swath of television options, thanks to nearby affiliates for major networks like NBC and CBS. Radio is eclectic, ranging from college indie rock formats to modern country, Top 40 favorites and soft rock contemporary.

Why live in Reading, PA?

A winning mix of historic undustry and modern convenience, Reading apartments for rent make a great option for anyone considering a move to Pennsylvania. From art deco design flourishes on the business district buildings to its impressive collection of museums and art galleries, this proud city maintains a solid economic base thanks to the healthcare and manufacturing industries. 

What Reading landmarks should I see?

The Reading Pagoda is a Japanese-inspired structure that dates back to 1908 and remains one of the most distinct and popular landmarks in the city. The William Penn Memorial Fire Tower climbs over 120 feet into the sky, and the Reading Gloe and Mitten Factory has been standing proud since the 1800s. The Mid-Atlantic Air Museum is also a short distance away from many Reading rentals, offering an impressive collection of classic flying machines.

What is there to do around Reading?

Take in an evening of cinema in the classic confines of the Rajah Shrine Theater, or immerse yourself in local lore with a visit to the Reading Public Museum, both a stone's throw from many Reading apartments for rent. FirstEnergy Stadium is the place to cheer on the home team in a variety of sporting events, and the grounds of four colleges, including Alvernia University, make for excellent strolling opportunities. 

Any annual festivals or Reading events to know?

The Berks Jazz Fest is a music-heavy fan favorite, and Fall Fest ushers in the leaf changing season with plenty of crafts and local cuisine options. The Reading Fire and Ice Fest also has much to offer in the realm of live music and parades, happening every winter in the city center.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Head into the heart of Philadelphia to see the famous Rocky Steps and the Liberty Bell, or take advantage of some of Pennsylvania's impressive camping and hiking options, all reached with ease from many Reading apartments for rent. 

Where is the best place to move in Reading?

From the students-laden one bedroom apartments of College Heights to the family-oriented 3-bedroom rentals of the Glenside district, Reading neighborhoods are all welcoming in their own unique way. Start your hunt for the next ideal Reading apartment in your life today, and see what the Pennsylvania buzz is all about!
