Midland, PA (Borough)

Set along the Ohio River in Beaver County, Midland got its start as a classic steel town built around the local mills. While you can still see that industrial heritage in its quiet neighborhoods, the borough has found a fresh identity in recent years. Today, it is best known as a regional arts hub thanks to the Lincoln Park Performing Arts Center and its charter school, which bring dozens of live concerts, plays, and events to town all year long. It is a tight-knit riverfront community that combines a grounded, small-town feel with a lively creative scene.
