Moving to Pennsylvania (advice for towns/counties?)

[impetus_maximus]

[edit]

Stay out of any communities if you want to keep your sanity.
With a LTCF you don't necessarily need to carry concealed, but it's your choice and keeps you out of trouble when a state of emergency is declared.

yeah, no communities for me. 4 of the 6 houses i looked at were in communities. not for me.
i think open carry would be great if everyone did it. but it makes some people nervous.
also i don't want a thug to see me as the #1 threat. i'm going to be a grey man. [/edit]

Green counties are considered 'rural' and would be the best place to start given your desire to not go too far from NJ.

many thanks. i've been looking in Carbon county.

My advice: Stay in NJ. Vote Republican, volunteer, fight, advocate, and try to change the PRNJ from within.

If you want to move here, then actually move here. Don't "buy some land" to come shoot and enjoy what we've fought for while still staying "within X distance" of the motherland. Buy a home, change your residence, give up on NJ. That means it's your primary residence, no concerns about staying "close enough". And please, for goodness sake, don't enjoy our hard-won liberty then turncoat and be voting for the same things that made NJ the shithole it has become. We see WAAAAY too much of that.

a lot of the Republicans here are as bad or worse than the dem... socialists. we've been fighting, and losing. we have carry permits here, but no one applies because you will probably get denied.
you need a good reason to carry one. self preservation isn't good enough. getting denied looks bad applying for one in a free state. only judges and other officials seem to be able to get a hold of one here.

i have family in NJ. that is why i'm concerned about travel time. let me be clear here. i'm selling my house in NJ. i'm buying a house in PA PERIOD.
i will be a full time resident. i WILL be voting, and encouraging other shooters/hunters to do so!

avoid Monroe and Pike that are green on the map. full of NJ and NY transplants that changed them for the worse .

monroe is especially bad when it comes to property taxes, car insurance, and home insurance are much higher because it is considered a tourist area

thanks for that info. i'm thinking further west will be best.

I think we should setup a socialist exchange program. We ship* all avowed socialists to Jersey in exchange for all Jersey's conservatives.


*Shipment will be conducted by Trebuchet over the Delaware.

i'll supply the lumber! lol

many thanks for everyone's help.
cheers /max
