Montgomery County, PA

Welcome to Montgomery County’s web site.  Here you will find a wide variety of amenities and services that help form a basis for the rich quality of life available to our residents, workers and visitors.

Montgomery County is the third largest County in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with a population estimated at 770,774*, larger than the states of Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska and North Dakota and the District of Columbia.  With a rich history that pre-dates the Revolution, Montgomery County has developed from east to west over the centuries and includes highly urbanized centers, quaint villages and rich rural farmland.

As the County Commissioners, we oversee a government with annual revenues and expenditures in excess of $500 million. The array of services and programs we provide our citizens include parks and historic sites, featuring a network of recreational trails, a criminal justice system and judiciary recognized as one of the Commonwealth’s finest, a highly regarded community college and a host of human services.

We’re also very proud of our Aaa Bond Rating, the highest possible rating from the financial market place.  We are one of less than 30 counties in the nation to receive this rating, a testament to our prudent fiscal management and integrity.

Industrial and residential growth has changed our County dramatically as we embark on the 21^st Century and new challenges and problems are constantly before us. You can be confident that Montgomery County government is meeting these challenges. Your County government, in collaboration with state, federal and municipal governments as well as business leaders, is providing leadership to serve all its citizens.
