Pennsylvania: Johnstown
Johnstown is quite in the middle of our list when you add up all the pros and cons of all the cities. It isn’t that expensive to live in, but it isn’t the cheapest either (however, all of them are affordable when we’re talking about having little to no savings to your name). The home price is right in the middle, at around $100,000.
However, it does have the highest violent crime rate per 1,000 people, coming in at 52.96! What could make you close your eyes to this aspect is the fact that you will not have much to pay when it comes to taxes, as Pennsylvania is one of the few states that takes care of your savings by not taxing you.
I live in Egypt and love it-housing and food are affordable, health care is good and affordable. Also the people are very nice. If you live in Cairo, there is a large expat community although I prefer living among the locals.
In Nebraska the home of the corn single mom, tattooed, supper plus sized, rusty mini van wheelen, welfare loven whoes we are taxed to support these loosers. Yes, the corn people let the crooks & murders & rapest out of jail so we get to live in fere for the children of the corn.
I spent 2 weeks on Negros Island and loved it! Much cooler than Manila for example and cleaner.
I could never live in a hot and humid state. I am active and not a chair rocker don’t want to live in an air conditioned box. Cold weather states with snow are the only ones I would ever concider since again I am active with fall and winter activities. Also could not live in the city, love rural living.
Central WA State, Moses Lake great place to live, growing but safely. 26,000 for now. People friendly, willing to help others, many of all ages, races, ethnic groups living here. No one has a superior attitude. Sales tax is all for WA State. No income tax and each time it is proposed, voters shut it down.
5 hr drive to the Pacific Ocean beaches, 2 hrs drive east to Spokane. 300+ days of sunshine. Winter snow measured in inches, usual is 3″. Hot Summers, but 90s average. Dry climate. Most storms pass on by and no major storms.
I have lived in Grant County, WA since 1972. Come visit, check us out this Summer.
New houses being built and older homes, lots to choose from at low pricing.
