Start a pest map of the Pittsburgh metro and Allegheny County is one of its pieces: 730 square miles where the metro's climate lands on this county's own mix of subdivisions, older streets and open ground.
The county's homes sit in midatlantic country, where humid summers and cold winters that swing pressure between termites, ticks and overwintering invaders. The pests that follow from that — subterranean termites, ticks and carpenter ants above all — are the ones local providers spend their year on in Allegheny County.
On the map, Allegheny County is 730 square miles of Pennsylvania — the 29th largest county in the state by land area on Census figures — with its centre near 40.47° N, 79.98° W. The Pittsburgh metro counts 8 counties, and providers serve this one from that metro under Pennsylvania licensing.
Geography puts Allegheny County about 6 miles southwest of Pittsburgh, and that position inside the metro matters more than it might seem. At 13% of the metro's total county land area, Allegheny County is a mid-sized county for this metro — and pest work here follows the settlement pattern: the closer a property sits to the metro's wooded and watered edges, the more its pressure resembles the countryside's; the closer to the core, the more it resembles the city's. Providers read the address before they read the pest, because in Allegheny County the same species behaves differently at the two ends of that spectrum.

Within the same metro, Armstrong County (653 sq mi) lies about 36 miles to the northeast; Beaver County (435 sq mi) lies about 24 miles to the northwest; Butler County (789 sq mi) lies about 31 miles to the north; Fayette County (791 sq mi) lies about 42 miles to the southeast; Lawrence County (357 sq mi) lies about 41 miles to the northwest; Washington County (857 sq mi) lies about 23 miles to the southwest; Westmoreland County (1,028 sq mi) lies about 29 miles to the east — each with its own county page in this index, because pest pressure is read county by county even when the metro is shared.
The Erie, PA metro centre is about 114 miles to the north; the State College, PA metro centre is about 116 miles to the east; the Chambersburg, PA metro centre is about 125 miles to the east. Those distances are the county's real geography, and pest work respects it: providers cross metro lines on their routes every week, and an address near Allegheny County's edge can sit closer to a neighbouring metro's crews than to its own.
