Exactly where are the under $300K houses in PA?

If you want ''great schools'' and an SFH, you're going to have to up your budget to low $400,000s. Look in and around Allentown/Bethlehem/Easton, Harrisburg, Reading, Pittsburgh, Lancaster, York, and Philly.

You just rattled off some really economically depressed areas with terrible schools and no tennis club. Alllentown are you kidding? That place is a dump.

Nope not kidding, and OP wanted a $300k house.

You know North Carolina is a state and Atlanta is a city?

People here are recommending Detroit suburbs. You think Detroit is economically thriving?

So you’re telling me the state will be destroyed in 3 years time? All the growth states are red.

I would never move to a red state & would move to Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Maine, New York or Illinois instead.

on a two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo. The owners accepted and he closed in April at $230,000.”

OP is looking for a single family home. Nice try though. And ick, Florida.

Ick, some dumb swampster.

OP has some choices to make. A two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo for $230k in a safe and nice area could make a lot of sense -- much more than $300k for a SFH in a decrepit and dangerous area.

I love that area. Are the schools good?

There are no decent single-family homes for 300K
Just as expensive for a home as NoVA

You can find a $300k SFH in a non-dangerous area, just not near a lot of corporate jobs.

This is where I was going to suggest but prices have indeed increased dramatically in the past few years. I grew up in Brighton and highly recommend it

West Allentown is nice as is most of Bethlehem and Emmaus. This house is pending, in OP’s budget, and in a great school system. The Lehigh Valley has any retail you want, nice parks, and most importantly it’s close to NYC and Philly if you need to take a weekend trip for more cultural or retail amenities. A lot of these other places PP’s are mentioning are in the middle of nowhere in the South or in Michigan. I’d rather be less than two hours from the best city in the country.
