its hard to answere because nepa being what it is ,which is basically smalll towns they are all lacking in many respects... i dont think i could even guess at any because truthfully you really have to live there a while to know..

maybe if you narrowed your question down to a particular point, like schools or shopping or medical care or things to do you may get some informed replys but i think the question is to general.

Good picks, but I would've replaced Clarks Summit with Havey's Lake for sure. I do like all your other picks though.
