Lancaster County isn't bad. But you also pay for what you get. Want to be in the middle of nowhere in the mountains- check out Somerset/Laurel Highlands. Want to live in a population with a College education? Try the Philly 'burbs. Going for the cute town - Hershey and Litiz are great. Want to be around rednecks in trailer parks?- throw a dart at the center of the state and have at it.
