The county's vital statistics: 551 square miles (the 40th largest of 67 in Pennsylvania), centred at 40.40° N, 77.27° W, and one of the 3 counties composing the Harrisburg–Carlisle metro. Pest work here is done by metro-based providers under Pennsylvania rules.
There is a useful way to locate Perry County in the metro's pest geography: about 10 miles northwest of Harrisburg, holding roughly 34% of the metro counties' combined land area. A mid-sized county for this metro. The consequence shows up in the work itself — properties here draw their pest pressure from both directions, the metro's and the countryside's, and a provider who treats Perry County like the urban core, or like open country, will misjudge half the addresses in it.
