Sometimes, you just know.
You drive down the winding streets of a quaint village lined with historic shops and inviting eateries and can immediately feel how special it is without having ever been there before.
That's the place.
And maybe, the entire experience started out as a detour or a pitstop, but the town's charm, charisma of its residents, and the calmness of its parks drew you into something bigger.
Like a painting frozen in time that's forever evolving and a place that feels like home to all who walk its weathered sidewalks.
Yes, that's the place.
According to a list compiled by HGTV, the best small town in Pennsylvania is Latrobe. This charming little town was also named among the most charming small towns in America.
Here's what HGTV had to say about the best small town in each state:
"Recently listed in Smithsonian Magazine as one of "The 20 Best Small Towns to Visit in 2018," Latrobe, Pennsylvania, honors its native son, TV pioneer Fred Rogers, with the new Fred Rogers Trail. Tourists can stop at the Latrobe Brewery (the original home of Rolling Rock beer) and Saint Vincent College (home of the summer training camp for the Pittsburgh Steelers), or just head to a local ice cream shop to celebrate Latrobe as the birthplace of the banana split."
