[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My one visit to Lancaster was for business, and it was pretty rough/rundown in the downtown (if you can call it that). I would visit and spend some real time in the city, including at night, before you spend too much time thinking about this.[/quote] Have you been to the neighborhoods in Philadelphia where a rowhome like OP posted sells for $225,000? If so, how was it at night? Lancaster is not dangerous compared to most Mid Atlantic mid size cities.[/quote] Yeah, the neighborhoods in Philly for that price would be far from the business center and fairly rough neighborhoods. But that doesn't mean that downtown Lancaster is not also rough. And you have the additional downsides of less to do (than in Philly) and less chance of price appreciation. I mean, I feel for someone who wants to buy at that price point in or near any big city. Not a lot of great options. [/quote]
