Williamsport, Pennsylvania

The City Recreation Department manages Brandon Park, Max M. Brown Memorial Park and Muncy Bank Ballpark at Historic Bowman Field, Phillip E. Preziosi Park, Lose School Park, Young’s Woods, Elm Park, and Shaw Place Park. It also runs Splash Cove, summer day camps, park activities, field and pavilion use, and events such as the STREAT Food Festival, Williamsport Welcomes the World, and the Christmas Parade.

The James V. Brown Library adds an indoor civic destination, while the West Branch Susquehanna River and the broader Lycoming County setting shape outdoor choices. A possible home still needs a route check for parking, sidewalks, slopes, winter surfaces, shade, seating, pool access, transit, and the trip home after a park or river visit.

The catalog lists UPMC Williamsport as a general acute-care hospital 1.1 miles away with 255 beds and Level II trauma, plus Divine Providence Hospital 3 miles away with 31 psychiatric beds. UPMC’s current hospital description lists 224 licensed beds and 22 bassinets for UPMC Williamsport, with a 24-hour emergency department, intensive care, inpatient care, same-day surgery, family medicine residency, and pharmacy. Preserve the catalog’s 255-bed field, the current official 224-bed description, and the 22-bassinets detail as separately attributed facts; ask UPMC which licensed and staffed figures apply now.

UPMC Williamsport Divine Providence Campus is a separate general medicine and surgical campus with behavioral-health inpatient care, cancer care, breast health, diabetes and nutrition, lab, imaging, wound services, and same-day surgery. The catalog’s 31-bed psychiatric entry is kept distinct from the main acute-care hospital and the current campus service description. The catalog also lists 13 pharmacies and 101 selected Medicare specialists, while the primary care row is 0 and emergency care is 100.

The catalog care map lists UPMC Williamsport 1.1 miles away at 255 beds and Level II trauma, and Divine Providence Hospital 3 miles away at 31 psychiatric beds. UPMC’s current About Us description lists 224 licensed beds and 22 bassinets for UPMC Williamsport, a 24-hour emergency department, intensive care, pharmacy, inpatient services, same-day surgery, and a family medicine residency. Keep 255 and 224 separate, and ask about licensed, staffed, and available capacity.

Divine Providence provides behavioral-health inpatient care and other distinct services, including cancer care, breast health, diabetes and nutrition, outpatient lab and imaging, wound care, and same-day surgery. The catalog lists 13 pharmacies and 101 selected Medicare specialists, while its primary care row is 0. Verify the preferred physician, plan, referrals, prescription route, psychiatric care, transfer needs, appointment timing, parking, transit, and the exact route from the possible home.

The catalog safety composite is unavailable. It displays 2024 FBI Crime Data Explorer agency rates of 219.13 violent crimes and 1,676.28 property crimes per 100,000 for Williamsport Police Department across 12 reporting months. The catalog identifies the agency and a complete reporting period; a current city incident record, neighborhood geography, response-time series, and resident experience still require separate checks.

The Williamsport Police Department is the city law-enforcement agency, and Pennsylvania’s UCR system and State Police data dashboards provide official statewide and agency-level data routes. Keep any city row separate from Lycoming County or Pennsylvania totals. At the home, review lighting, entry, parking, nearby streets, winter travel, transit stops, emergency contacts, and the route home from care, groceries, parks, or the river.

The catalog snapshot shows 25.4°C, 67 percent humidity, and AQI 62, but those are current-condition fields rather than a climate average. Lycoming County hazard material describes annual snowfall of about 50 to 60 inches, flood exposure, winter storms, thunderstorms, tornadoes, straight-line winds, and power outages. Some county material is dated, so use it as a hazard starting point and confirm current local guidance.

The West Branch Susquehanna, Lycoming Creek, snow and ice, drainage, lower levels, heating, trees, power, and the route to UPMC all belong in the home visit. A floodwall protects parts of the city according to county material, but protection along one river edge does not answer a parcel-level flood question. Ask about flood maps, insurance, basement exposure, snow removal, generator policy, and emergency access.
