When deciding where to purchase your Bed &Breakfast, consider Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Lancaster provides a winning combination of an established tourism market, beautiful scenery and close proximity to many potential customers. 14% of the U.S. population lives within three hours of Lancaster. This closeness to huge population markets has become even more important with the rising cost of gasoline. More than 8 million visitors come to Lancaster each year, they spend nearly $1.5 billion and the average length of stay is 2.6 days. Because of this successful mix, Lancaster County has the second largest B&B industry in the United States.
