Despite its unusual name, Imperial is the friendliest little city you'll ever call home.
Once you move in, you may feel like you've stepped into a movie about the fifties, where neighbors look a lot like friends and everybody meets up at the diner for a big plate of Saturday morning breakfast. A true American hometown has at least one local joints where friends gather to recount the adventures of the day, and Imperial is no exception. Try Angelica's Pizza or Bob's Imperial Diner for starters. In fact, Bob's Diner collects rave reviews on foodie website UrbanSpoon despite its old-fashioned exterior. You'll become another satisfied customer once you've experienced the restaurant's classic, freshly-prepared diner food. After a talk with one of the chatty waitresses, she might know your name, your family members' names, and where you went to school, but that's a good thing. Imperial residents are just friendly; it's as if they can't even help it. You'll come to cherish your neighbors' warmth and willingness to invite you into their lives. A genuine hometown like Imperial is impossible to imitate, and hard to forget.

In terms of activities for adults, there are more than a few readers in Imperial, Pennsylvania, so look for a local book club to call home.
