About Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania is a suburb and ward located on elevated terrain to the north of Exeter in Devon, England. Nestled between the historic Duryard deer park and Stoke Hill, it was established in the early 19th century by Quaker banker Joseph Sparkes, who named it after the US state. As of the 2021 census, Pennsylvania has a population of 10,533, reflecting steady growth since 2011. This area presents unique planning opportunities due to its historical significance and residential development.
In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Pennsylvania a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
