Somerset Pennsylvania, embracing the winds of change.

Stability, structure, and vision; these are the traits that define the promise of a bright future and a better tomorrow. These are also the traits that best define the town of Somerset Pennsylvania. In a time when uncertainty reigns supreme it's nice to see that you can live in a place that supports and protects its citizens. Somerset is considered a borough or self governing township. This helps provide the citizen with the support that is so lacking in some of the bigger cities. On a more large scale note, the Somerset Wind Farm is located approximately 3 miles to the east, where turbines produce enough electricity annually to supply about 3,400 homes. This excellent source of green energy will keep the town from fading into obscurity anytime soon.

The town more than delivers on the modern convenience level, with six movie theaters, five golf courses, three major resort areas, two Parks, two Baseball fields, six tennis courts and numerous exercise, and fitness centers. It is tough to find a town, these days, that is so self aware of where it has come from and where it is heading. Somerset has hit the proverbial nail on the head here, by aligning it self with the current direction of the country with green energy will holding on to its citizen support with local government, and consumer demand. The only real travesty here is that it is in the vast minority of today's rural town trends.
