Pennsylvania's 14th District
PA-14 is located in Southwestern Pennsylvania, bordering Ohio, West Virginia, and the greater Pittsburgh region. Here's a quick overview of our district:
- Counties: The 14th District includes all of Fayette, Greene, and Washington counties, and parts of Indiana, Westmoreland, and Somerset counties.
- Population: Approximately 760,000 people call PA-14 home. The district is predominantly rural and suburban, with tight-knit communities and a rich industrial heritage.
- Largest Communities: Uniontown, Washington, Greensburg (part), Indiana, Latrobe (part), Waynesburg, Connellsville, and other boroughs and townships across the six counties.
- Economy: Key industries include energy (natural gas, coal), manufacturing (steel and related industries), agriculture, small business, and a burgeoning AI industry. Many residents commute to jobs in the Pittsburgh area, while local economies center on manufacturing plants, mines, and a growing service sector.
- Politics: PA-14 is a solidly Republican district (Cook PVI R+17), giving GOP candidates large margins in recent elections. Voter registration leans heavily Republican, and the district gave President Donald J. Trump roughly a 2-to-1 advantage in 2024.
