Adding to the cons in PA: Lousy roads, stupid reckless drivers, high taxes, poor municipal services, a heavy infestation of liberals, the boy mayor of Pittsburgh who is more concerned about Chick fil A than fixing roads, still powerful unions, particularly teachers and government workers, bad schools. Probably more, but I can’t think of them.
One pro is housing. You can still buy a reasonably priced home here, provided you are working.
PA’s income tax is a flat 3.07% and doesn’t tax pensions. I’m not crazy about the 6% sales tax but better that than high property taxes.
