Hello, and thanks for looking!
I am interested in moving with my boyfriend to either the Pittsburgh area or somewhere slightly west of Philadelphia. We currently live in Cherry Hill, NJ and while we love it here we want to get out of NJ and avoid crazy taxes.

My brother lives in Harleysville and we love it there so we are looking for something similar. We like woodsy and rural areas, not too overdeveloped.
If we remain in the Philadelphia area he will still be working in Cherry Hill so we cant go TOO far past Harleysville.
Should we move to the Pittsburgh area he would likely work in the city.

We would like to stay in the 250-300k range, and aim for an alright school district and fairly safe. (Living in Cherry Hill we have good and bad areas sprinkled all over, its safe but you watch your back in certain areas. this is fine.)

We really just want somewhere with plenty of trees, somewhere that we can have a huge yard and be a decent distance from neighboring houses, though we may settle with a townhouse should it include a yard.

We just want to exclude places most know to avoid. I have never been to Pittsburgh so I am asking about there blindly.

Hope I gave enough info! I know the house price we are looking for is rather low, im not looking for the best area on earth for pennies...

thanks again!!!
