About York, Pennsylvania
York is a city in York County, Pennsylvania, United States, and its county seat. York was also known as Yorktown in the mid-18th to early 19th centuries. It was founded in 1741 by settlers from the Philadelphia region and named for the English city of the same name. By 1777, most of the area residents were of German or Scots-Irish descent.
