    Don't overlook the middle of the state. It is sort of like a gun owner paradise down the middle of the state. You aren't that far from Pittsburgh/Harrisburg/State College/York and most of the gun ranges here don't have out of control rules.

    There certainly are expensive areas, but the vast majority has very low property taxes and RE values are generally more than reasonable.

    UPPER Bucks is almost paradise. Lower Bucks is a war zone and Central Bucks is too expensive for my civil service job.

    I dont know about a "war zone". Most of the townships that border NE Philly (Bensalem, Feasterville, Upper & Lower Southampton, Warrington, Warminster) are nice. However i work in one of the "war zone" suburbs bordering Trenton NJ.

    It's all relative...

    You are correct, it is all rainbows and ice cream in Warrington.

    I just like Upper Bucks because it's quiet and your money goes a ton further.

    We put in work where I work too. I hear Trenton is nice this time of year...lol

    I like Chester County as it is close enough to the population centers for work, culture, etc., but still rural or semi rural in much of the county. It also has a buffer zone from Philly which is somewhat of a rat hole.

    I moved up here to Gettysburg 12 years ago to get away from those commie Marylanders. It took a bit of adjustment, kind of like living in Mayberry, everything has a much slower, relaxed pace.
    Taxes are a killer in the bourough. Food selection is pretty bad, I don't touch the seafood around here. Finding good employees is damn near impossible.
    That said, the community is really tight here, they are always there for each other. And a really nice place to raise kids. Free healthcare for the young and old. Close enough to Maryland to go get some crabs from people who know what to do with them.
    I like it here in Adams Co.
