Anyone live in Pennsylvania?
We are thinking of moving to Pennsylvania after this school year.
Just based on demographic information we've looked up, we may be interested in moving to Bethlehem, PA. Does anyone here live near that area? or have other recommendations in PA? Thanks!

Cant wait to hear what people say! We are likely getting transfered to the Pittsburgh area soon. We should be finding out which city my husband will be based out of in the next few weeks.

I live in Cherry Hill, NJ but grew up in Phila. Love the area! I work in Philly now and our son goes to day care here.
I love Kid's Castle! What an amazing place to play. I am also a HUGE fan of Smith Memorial Playground and Playhouse. My son could spend hours on the slide!

I lived in PA for the first 30 years of my life! Spent most of it in Easton.
Bethlehem is beautiful and there are no hurricanes there...unfortunately though..there is SNOW!
