Reply to comment by DelcoWolv in This is why Pennsylvania the best state, we got Wawa and low child abuse numbers by Hardwarethewolf

Could go in either direction. Good CPS either generates a lot of abuse cases or deters a lot of abuse cases.

This is anecdotal, so grain of salt, but ive lived in several states. And this one has the best resources for kids. Im not sure if thats related at all tho

PA CPS resources vary wildly community to community. In nicer burbs like those in Bucs, Montco, and Delco there's plenty of access and good response. Out in rural counties there's next to nothing, and the communities are super conservative so reporting is definitely discouraged culturally. Inner cities have the opposite problem where poverty is so rampant there are not enough resources to go around.
