Hanover Township occupies a lowland section of the Wyoming Valley beside the Susquehanna River in northeastern Pennsylvania. Part of Luzerne County, it lies within the Appalachian Plateau region, where settled valley floors meet wooded ridges. The township belongs to Pennsylvania’s historic anthracite coal country, an industry that shaped the growth, transport links and working communities of the wider valley. Residential areas, commercial corridors and industrial sites connect Hanover Township closely with the Wilkes-Barre urban area. The Susquehanna remains the valley’s defining geographic thread, following a route long important to settlement and commerce.
