While Happy Valley is known to be a visitor destination, especially for Penn State alumni who love coming back to enjoy their favorite college town, its growing tech sector also makes it an ideal place for top talent looking for career opportunities and quality of life.
“It’s not hard to recruit here,” says Phil Armstrong, lead at the Morgan Advanced Materials Carbon Science Centre of Excellence. “People want to raise their families here, buy houses here. The region is a big attractor.”
“Big attractor” might be an understatement. The area has long been a darling of ‘best of’ lists — it ranks high for being one of the least stressful cities in the US; a best place to raise a family; and a best place to live and launch.
In other words, it’s a place where having a good job in an Industry 4.0 company and a work-life balance is more than a goal … it can be a reality, and an especially appealing one for Penn State alumni looking to make a long-term home near their alma mater.
