Boroughs

Boroughs are less populated than neighboring cities and more developed than the adjacent townships.  Residential communities, apartment buildings and single-family dwellings are common within their borders.

 

Due to larger parcels of available land, boroughs tend to attract corporations in need of larger space to build their facilities and office buildings than the nearby cities.  Designated business districts are home to many of the private, public and commercial office buildings with restaurants strategically placed to serve those working or visiting the area.  Retail centers, Industrial structures, manufacturing shops and warehousing facilities can also be found inside the borders of many boroughs.

 

These businesses provide employment, goods and services to the residents and others living in nearby cities and rural areas.  They depend on their local governments to deliver dependable and efficient transportation for their customers and employees.  These companies expect borough officials to maintain the streets and sidewalks in a condition that will provide a safe & inviting atmosphere to live, dine and conduct business.
