The Wawa Pilgrimage: How Many Wawa Stores Are in the Land of Cheesesteaks?
Ah, Pennsylvania. Land of liberty bells, scrapple, and, of course, the holy grail of convenience stores: Wawa. But with Wawas seemingly on every corner (or at least that's what it feels like when you're craving a Sizzli at 3 am), how many actually exist in the Keystone State?
The Great Wawa Census: A Statistical Odyssey
Fear not, fellow Wawa worshippers! According to intrepid Wawa Watchers (yes, that's a real thing, and it's way cooler than birdwatching), there are approximately 253 Wawa stores dotting the Pennsylvanian landscape. That's a Wawa for roughly every 50,000 people, which means you're never truly Wawa-less (although, let's be honest, some days it feels that way).
Fun Fact: New Jersey, surprisingly, boasts the most Wawas, followed closely by Florida. But hey, Pennsylvania comes in a respectable third, and that's nothing to hoagie about!
Tip: Don’t skip — flow matters.
Is There a Wawa on Every Corner? Not Quite, But Close Enough
Now, before you pack your car for a Wawa pub crawl across the state (don't do that, please), it's important to remember that Wawa distribution isn't perfectly even. You'll find a higher concentration in the southeastern part of the state, near Philly (the birthplace of Wawa, after all). But fear not, rural Pennsylvanians, Wawa is steadily expanding its reach, so your Sheetz-based despair may soon be a thing of the past.
