Yes, there have been two U.S. Presidents who were born in Pennsylvania: James Buchanan, the 15th President who served from 1857 to 1861, and Joe Biden, the 46th and current President who took office in 2021. Both Buchanan and Biden were born in Pennsylvania, with Buchanan being born in Cove Gap and Biden in Scranton.

As of May, 2012, there have been one U. S. President and two U. S. Vice Presidents who were born in Pennsylvania:

  1. 15th President James Buchanan
  2. 11th Vice President George M. Dallas

Buchanan and Dallas had run for office as inhabitants of Pennsylvania, but Biden had become an inhabitant of Delaware by the time he ran for Vice President.

James Buchanan was the only president who was born and held public office in Pennsylvania and is buried there. His home , Wheatland, in Lancaster. PA is a museum and open to the public. Dwight Eisenhower retired to a farm adjacent to the battlefield in Gettysburg , PA . His retirement home is now a national historic site.

James Buchanan is the only president from PA, which fact I find odd given how long PA has been a state and its relatively large population.
