Jefferson County

[edit]

Which region does Jefferson County fall into? It doesn't appear to be red on any of the maps... AnonMoos (talk) 17:56, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Indiana County & Sources

[edit]

I think I see Indiana County in red on a map, but it's not listed in a section. It's not clear to me what the source is for categorizing these counties in any case. The link to the Census Bureau isn't helping me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.128.195.16 (talk) 21:17, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Regions

[edit]

This page needs considerable work. The regions should be divided to reflect those in this box:

Agreed. I've tagged the article as single-source even though the only source is only used to cite population counts in two instances. I'm also suspicious of the veracity and even existence of some of these regions as delineations. GabberFlasted (talk) 12:04, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pennsylvania Piedmont - Northampton County

[edit]

In the image under the "Pennsylvania Piedmont" heading, Northampton County is highlighted in red, but in the list underneath, it isn't mentioned. This should probably be made consistent, though the limits of the Pennsylvania Piedmont region are up for debate. 2600:1002:B030:BF08:3500:3A00:95C3:AC70 (talk) 18:03, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This whole section is off. The list seems to be based on the "South-Central" counties, but the map shows the geographic range of the Piedmont (which includes Bucks, Chester, Lehigh, Montgomery, and Northampton). This is probably too subjective an area to get proper sourcing on, as the Commonwealth, regional tourism boards, and other sources are likely to disagree on exactly which counties belong where. For instance, DEP includes the Lehigh Valley in its "South Central" region, while PREP cuts it off at Lancaster/Lebanon. PREP also includes Perry County but not Juniata or Huntingdon while the Genealogical Society of PA includes Juniata and Huntingdon (inter alia) but not Lancaster or Lebanon. 734cpa (talk) 17:46, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
