Earlier, Altoona's economy was primarily dependent on the railroad industry.  This changed with time as the city began to urbanize.  Now, the city depends more on local businesses.  In fact a top employer is Sheetz.  Sheetz is a large convenience store and gas station chain that is present in many states such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Virginia.  There are many Sheetz locations (approximately twenty) in Altoona.  Therefore it is one of the city's top employers.  To support Sheetz and other businesses, the legal force in Altoona is strong.  It has many competent attorneys who practice law in various fields.  Thus, they are able to help local businesses and residents with their legal needs.
