Maybe moving to SE Pennsylvania - questions?
Hey all,
I'm considering a promotion that would require me to move to SE Pennsylvania. I'll be working in a large area around the Harrisburg area. Any good places to live there? Any places to avoid?
I'd love to find a nice house with some acreage, but seems to be hard to find up there.
Would like to spend no more than 200k for the house. Suggestions?

Carlisle is pretty nice and reasonably close to Harisburg. They have really awsome car shows at the fair grounds too. www.carsatcarlisle.com Come on up, PA isn't bad at all espically when it comes to cars!

Harrisburg isn't really se PA, it' not like you would be moving to Philly suburbs. Even so good luck trying to find a nice house plus acreage for 200g, if you want to sacrifice a really nice house you should be able to find an acre or two.
Hershey is a real nice area.

I live in lancaster, we have quite a few f-bodies around the area. We usually hangout in York on the weekends. Harrisburg is actually considered south central PA. I agree with spanky, Hershey is a nice area.

if you travel about 15 mins north of harrisburg you get to Halifax PA... that is where I am from
not to bad of an area... cost of living alittle lower than harrisburg/ carlisle area
JUST RECONSIDER!!! I HATE PA!!! cold, snowing, the roads are a joke (pot holes everywhere) but there is a Pot Hole hotline to let Penndot know where a new one pops up... 3 yrs later they will show up to dump some tar a chips in the damn thing and that is awesome running through a 6" puddle of tar and chips in the middle of July when is 110* outside......

Have you been realtor.com alot? Check out the Dillsburg area. You can still find some decent houses with a little land you can build an extra garage on in that area, and not far at all from Harrisburg. Do you have kids? The schools are another thing to consider if you do. Good luck, I think the area here is a great place to live by the way.
