Report of Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Vanguard
Pennsylvania Tax-Free Funds and
Shareholders of
Vanguard Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-
Exempt Fund

In planning and performing our audit of
the financial statements of Vanguard
Pennsylvania Long-Term Tax-Exempt
Fund (the "Fund") as of and for the year
ended November 30, 2022, in
accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States) (PCAOB), we
considered the Fund's internal control
over financial reporting, including
controls over safeguarding securities, as
a basis for designing our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing
our opinion on the financial statements
and to comply with the requirements of
Form N-CEN, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Fund's internal
control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we do not express an
opinion on the effectiveness of the
Fund's internal control over financial
reporting.

The management of the Fund is
responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over
financial reporting. In fulfilling this
responsibility, estimates and judgments
by management are required to assess
the expected benefits and related costs
of controls. A company's internal control
over financial reporting is a process
designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A
company's internal control over financial
reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions
of the assets of the company; (2) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts
and expenditures of the company are
being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and
directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition of a company's assets that
could have a material effect on the
financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A deficiency in internal control over
financial reporting exists when the
design or operation of a control does not
allow management or employees, in the
normal course of performing their
assigned functions, to prevent or detect
misstatements on a timely basis. A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting, such that
there is a reasonable possibility that a
material misstatement of the company's
annual or interim financial statements will
not be prevented or detected on a timely
basis.

Our consideration of the Fund's internal
control over financial reporting was for
the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph and would not necessarily
disclose all deficiencies in internal
control over financial reporting that might
be material weaknesses under standards
established by the PCAOB. However, we
noted no deficiencies in the Fund's
internal control over financial reporting
and its operation, including controls over
safeguarding securities, that we consider
to be a material weakness as defined
above as of November 30, 2022.

This report is intended solely for the
information and use of the Board of
Trustees of Vanguard Pennsylvania Tax-
Free Funds and the Securities and
Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be and should not be used
by anyone other than these specified
parties.
