It is easy to see why William Penn chose Bucks County as his home when he moved to his newly founded Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1682. The county's picturesque setting makes it ideal for both residents and visitors looking for a quiet escape. There is a little something for everyone throughout Bucks County's 607 square miles of diverse landscapes. Bucks County also contains many distinguished high schools which focus on a comprehensive and extensive education for all students, who regularly score much higher on standardized tests than the national average.
