It would almost be worth your while to consider commuting down I-83 from Stewartstown, Shrewsbury, or even Glen Rock Pennsylvania, I know people who did that for years.
We considered it but we home school our kids and believe it or not, home school laws in PA a pathetically draconian, rahter than just intrusinve in MD. (They were completely non-existent in MI)
Hell, we had guys commuting to Towson from York, our department was originally in that location.
I moved to MD with the intention of moving to SE York county, I would’ve ended up leaving home at 6:30AM and getting back after sports at maybe 9:00PM. Now the traffic is worse.
If you work in Hunt Valley it makes a big difference, even the trip from HV to Towson can be a painful trek.
I don’t envy the trip down I-95 every morning. MD drivers from the north side of Baltimore are lousy, cell phones has made their inattention and spreading out all over the highway worse. Forget the fast lane there’s probably someone parked in it, possibly reading a book or paper while driving.
95 turns into a parking lot above the split at Rosedale every morning. I tried going north once on 95 at 4AM and the southbound lanes were packed and looked like rush hour years ago.
And PA will pay for it, more and more, as basically liberal MDers move in - they want to avoid high prices and taxes, but they still vote for the same !$#!@$@. So they will end up with high prices and taxes again.
