We're sorry. Actually, no we're not.
This township's crown jewel is a massive indoor amusement center, which is like being the tallest building in a suburban strip mall. You know your town has peaked when a warehouse full of go-karts and laser tag is considered a tourist destination worth bragging about.
Upper Providence restored a canal lock that nobody uses anymore. Nothing screams "thriving community" like turning your biggest attraction into a monument to obsolete transportation that requires a plaque to explain why it matters.
Nestled between actual places people care about, this suburban tract exists purely to make other suburbs feel better about themselves. It's the geographical equivalent of that friend who tags along to parties but never gets invited anywhere first.
With comfortable household incomes, residents can afford to pretend the American Treasure Tour Museum is cultured entertainment. Nothing says "we've made it" quite like paying admission to see someone's weird collection displayed in what's essentially a glorified storage unit.
