[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up there and go back frequently to visit family.  What part of the county are you considering? The eastern part of the county is much more dense population-wise. There's definitely more traffic now than there used to be, but nothing like the DC area.  The western part of the county is rural, very pretty, and very quiet. There's also a political divide in the county, with the eastern half going for Biden in 2020 and the western half being red (except for the Dickinson affiliates). You might like the Boiling Springs area if you like to hike as the AT goes right through the town.  There are also several state parks nearby. Dickinson College in Carlisle brings some culture to the town, as does Shippensburg University to Shippensburg. The winters are slightly colder than DC.  In recent years there's been barely any snow, although a few decades ago there was snow on the ground much of the winter. If you're older and healthcare is a concern, there are several good hospitals, including Hershey Med in Dauphin county. Real estate is much cheaper than the DC area.  [/quote]

Thank you for writing back! I'm looking for a more laid back calm area. I think Camp Hill might be nice not sure though, Mechanicsburg might be very busy and Carlisle more urban as well am I correct here? Boiling Springs is pretty rural I think, further away from Grocery stores am I right? Someone between busy chaos and super rural is what I'm looking for. Thanks again![/quote]
