North American Van Lines: The Best of Reading Moving Companies
Reading is a charming small city of around 88,000 residents in southeastern Pennsylvania that boasts the fifth-largest population in the state and a compelling history. The city was laid out by Thomas and Richard Penn, the sons of William Penn, and later became a major industrial and military base during the French and Indian and Revolutionary wars, then boomed during the Canal Era and introduction of the railroads.
Today, Reading still embodies an industrial vibe, but also has a strong agricultural core. There are many activities to get involved with in the city, including clubs, fraternal societies, a historical society, music groups and an art institute.
One of the best parts about living in Reading is the fact that you can do so affordably. The city's median household income is growing and the cost of living index is less than the national average, according to City-Data.

Antietam Lake is another park expansion in town that covers 643 acres that aims to protect the natural resources of southeastern Pennsylvania.
