The venue’s fixed position

The place referred to here is Hollywood Casino at The Meadows, also described in public reference sources under the alias meadows. Its documented coordinates are 40.21622 latitude and -80.20184 longitude.

Publicly published reference sources place the venue in North Strabane Township, Pennsylvania, United States. The same source material also identifies the city as New Castle and the state as Pennsylvania, so the most careful reading is that the article can report those published place labels without trying to reconcile them beyond the wording already in those references.

For a reader trying to orient the property on a map, the coordinates matter more than any branding. A named venue can be sold, rebranded, expanded, or reconfigured, but the coordinates identify the fixed point that all of the distance figures in this article are measured from.

Documented venue facts

Publicly published reference sources describe the property as having 3,300 slot machines at the documented point those sources refer to. They also state that The Meadows opened on June 28, 1963.

Ownership and operating structure can change over time, so it helps to read those figures as dated statements rather than permanent conditions. The published ownership note says the real estate has been owned by Gaming and Leisure Properties since 2016, with business operations owned by Penn Entertainment since 2018, including a long-term lease agreement to Gaming and Leisure Properties.

Why straight-line distance and real travel differ

A straight-line figure is the shortest path between two coordinate points on the earth’s surface. It is useful for geographic orientation because it shows relative nearness without depending on a particular route choice.

Real travel rarely follows that line. Roads curve around terrain, water, developed land, property boundaries, and state lines; they also follow the shape of the road network rather than the shortest geometric path. That is why a straight-line figure is best read as a map-reference tool, not as a substitute for route planning.

The published caveat for these figures is explicit: they are great-circle distances, not driving miles, and driving is always longer. For that reason, this article stays with the documented great-circle measurements only.

How to read the venue’s regional position

Using the coordinates alone, the venue is in the northern hemisphere and west of the prime meridian, which places it in North America. The published place labels narrow that down to Pennsylvania in the United States.

Within Pennsylvania, the most defensible directional statement here is only the one supported by the source wording and the coordinates: this is a fixed point in Pennsylvania, and readers should treat it as a map location rather than as a route instruction. If you are comparing it with your own starting point, use the coordinates first and then let your map tool calculate the route that exists on the day you travel.

If the pair you want is not listed

This article can only publish straight-line distances for the reference points that appear in the documented matrix above. If the place you care about is not one of those entries, this article cannot measure that specific pair.

In that case, the practical method is simple: enter the venue coordinates, 40.21622 and -80.20184, into a map service, add your own starting point, and compare the result with the published reference pairs in the table. That gives you a fixed venue point and a reader-specific origin without guessing where you are coming from.

What to confirm before you go

Before travelling, confirm the changeable details that a location article should not freeze in time. That includes the property name in current use, parking arrangements, hotel availability if relevant to your trip, event access rules, and any on-site amenity details that may affect where you enter or where you park.

The authoritative current answer for those live details is the venue’s own contact and visitor information channels, especially its official property page and any published guest-services information. For route planning, use a current mapping service with the coordinates rather than relying on any static mileage figure in an article.

FAQ

Is Meadows Casino the same place as Hollywood Casino at The Meadows?

Publicly published reference sources connect the alias meadows with Hollywood Casino at The Meadows. For location purposes, the safest identifier is the coordinate pair 40.21622, -80.20184, because branding can change while the physical site remains the same fixed point on the map.

Can I use the straight-line miles here as my driving distance?

No. Every mileage figure in this article is labelled as straight-line or great-circle distance. Publicly published reference sources also state that driving is always longer, so these numbers are best used to understand geographic position, not to estimate road mileage or journey time.

What if I want the distance from my own location?

Your location is not fixed in this article, so it should not be guessed. Use the venue coordinates, 40.21622 and -80.20184, in your map tool, then compare your result with the documented reference points in the table to understand where the venue sits relative to places already listed.
