Located in west-central Pennsylvania, USA, nestled in the valley of the Allegheny Mountains, Johnstown is the largest city in Cambria County. Known for the rise of the steel industry in the 19th century, the city has experienced a number of devastating floods throughout its history, most notably the Great Flood of 1889, which shaped its image as a resilient city. Today, Johnstown features industrial heritage, flood memorials, and outdoor recreational resources, with a population of about 20,000 and an economy that has shifted to the healthcare and education industries.
City attractions include the Johnstown Flood National Memorial, the Heritage Discovery Center, and the Allegheny Mountain Trail, which appeals to history and nature lovers. Its location near Pittsburgh provides easy access to public transportation, and its four-season climate lends itself to tourism. Johnstown embodies the transformation and revitalization of America's industrial cities and is an important window into Pennsylvania's history.
