About location

Laflin sits along the Susquehanna River in northeastern Pennsylvania, United States, where Interstate 81 runs through the wooded Wyoming Valley. This small Luzerne County borough lies beside a key north–south route linking the Wilkes-Barre–Scranton area with the wider Interstate network, so its setting is shaped by traffic corridors, river lowlands and forested ridges. The surrounding valley was one of the United States’ principal anthracite-coal regions, and its mining era left a lasting imprint on settlement patterns and the industrial identity of northeastern Pennsylvania. Laflin is close to Wilkes-Barre, the valley’s historic commercial centre, while the river and low hills connect the borough with the broader Appalachian landscape.

Region Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania stretches from the shore of Lake Erie to the Delaware River, encompassing Appalachian ridges, plateaus and broad river valleys. Near the state’s geographic centre, the West Branch Susquehanna and its tributaries run through forested country, while the main Susquehanna continues south towards Chesapeake Bay. Philadelphia gives Pennsylvania an enduring place in the story of the United States: Independence Hall was the setting for the adoption of the Declaration of Independence and the signing of the Constitution. Former industrial cities, Amish and Mennonite communities, farms and state forests reveal markedly different sides of the Commonwealth.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
