Far better than the 1.5 hours I drive to Baltimore or King of Prussia now. I too vote Harrisburg area. We have a new Best Buy which is our second in the area, but the only one with a "mini Apple store" in it. It's just not the same though. The Lancaster store will be about a 35 minute drive.

There are Malls on the West Shore (Silver Springs Commons, Capital City Mall, and others) and on the East Shore also.

We don't have quality shopping centers or a downtown shopping district. Looks I'm stuck with a 45 minute commute to Lancaster.

Wed, 14 May 2008 03:15:26 +0000 http://www.ifoapplestore.com/db/?p=2676#comment-29159 Just a little clarification: Lancaster PA itself (the city), has about 55,000 residents. The County of Lancaster as a whole has about 500,000 residents. With the Amish culture, it's a major tourist destination. There are a lot of colleges, tech schools, ad agencies, printers and other typical Mac demographic within 50 miles. With it's close proximity to Reading, York, Harrisburg & Hershey, there is certainly enough population and money in the area to support an Apple Store. The closest store is about 70 miles East of here, at the King of Prussia Mall, and dealing with the outskirt traffic near Philadelphia isn't something most locals relish. I predict it will be popular and profitable. The proposed store at Park City Mall is about 5 minutes away from me. See you at the opening! Just a little clarification:
