Suggested Meta Ads setup in Pennsylvania
Meta location targeting supports countries, states, cities, ZIP codes and a radius around an address. Ads in Special Ad Categories (housing, employment, credit, and social issues or politics) have restricted targeting options, including a minimum 15-mile radius, so clients in those categories need their geography planned accordingly.
City-only audiences
Philadelphia (~1.6 million), Pittsburgh (~304,000) and Allentown (~120,000) are large enough to start with city targeting alone.
Radius audiences
For the 28 smaller markets, use a radius that pulls in nearby served cities, e.g. Harrisburg → York (23 mi), Altoona → Johnstown (31 mi) and York → Lancaster (23 mi).
Statewide retargeting
One retargeting audience across all 36 Pennsylvania markets keeps follow-up ads running even where prospecting audiences are small.
