As long as you stay away from all PA cities, their suburbs, and towns you'll be okay. 1-2% income tax, much less school taxes, and fewer regulations. I grew up 10mins from Philly it was all countryside. It's all developed now with track housing and shopping centers. Has high taxes and regulates everything but wiping you behind. The cities & towns also can add unseen fees to your utilities now for added profit. Spent 30yrs of my life moving west of where I grew up. Now the last place it's started.

So after 48 yrs of living in PA I finally had to leave. I certainly miss what once was everything I loved is pretty much gone there except a few things. But I don't miss the taxes for everything, the regulations on everything.

Where I'm at now there is no tax except property tax and it's not too bad and like PA used to be my property has a unrestricted deed. I can do whatever I want on my property whenever I want. I am literally regulation free on my land.

Another bonus I have the nicest neighbors I've had in 40 yrs and it's a real community here. We all wave to each other on the road, stop if you or someone else is on the side of the road. Every car that passes my house they wave and I wave back.

Pennsylvania was like that once upon a time............
