Whether you've lived in the area your entire life or just for a little while, you can probably relate to these signs.
1. The Armetta's sign
You can't pass it without taking a look. Plus, their pizza is great.
2. Summit University
It's probably has been renamed about 300 times by now. It has been changed so often you have lost count. Is it BBC, Clarks Summit University, or Summit University? Who knows.
3. Manning's.
Whether its the farm location or the one at the hub of Clarks Summit, is and will always be your ice cream of choice . You probably know the people that work there and are always happy to see them.
4. Summit Pointe has a lovely view any time of year.
5. Most of your friends from home live within ten minutes of you, and you probably grew up with them.
You'll always be there when they need you, and vice versa. (Thanks a million times over for that!)
6. You either went to Scranton Prep or Abington Heights.
Whichever one you didn't graduate from you probably greatly dislike.
7. There is most likely a back road to wherever you travel, and it is quite scenic.
You probably take the long way home.
8. NEPA is the only place where people say "tray" instead of "pie."
Stick to your roots, it's a tray.
9. People refer to the main strip of Clarks Summit as "the notch" and that's pretty much all you know about it.

10. When someone asks you where you're from, you just say Scranton.
No one really knows where Waverly, Dalton, Newton, or Clarks Summit are if they aren't from the area.
11. You feel an obligation to like Moe's better than anywhere else.
I'm not complaining, though.
12. South Abington Park has seriously stepped up its game in the past few years.
You probably used to play by the water fountains as a kid.
13. You can get anything at Sheetz.
Wawa isn't part of your vocabulary.
14. You like to visit the State Park because it's just plain beautiful.
15. But ultimately whether you stay or you go, it's always home.
