Moving To Hershey Area (Reading, Harrisburg: apartment, for rent, home)

[kathy_msu]

Evening all, my husband is taking a job in Myerstown Pa and we will be looking for an apartment in the area. I don't think there is much in myerstown at all so we're thinking towards Hershey? We'd like something new and large. I'll be looking for work - which direction is better? Harrisburg or Reading? Currently I'm a well paid University Admin Asst.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

I personally think that Harrisburg is an easier commute from Hershey, but look in both directions.

Once you get offers, weigh the salary and commute time to decide which is best.

hi hershey area
Myerstown is about 1/2 hour from Hershey. It is a great place to live but you husband might encounter traffic getting back and forth to work in
rush hours....it is def worth the trip...
Hershey has the best housing...I have a home 4 bedrooms, 21/2 baths and
hot tub with huge yard for rent..landscaping included and leaf removal included for rent in Hershey laurel woods...Harrisburg is only 15 minutes more
away and your husband wont have to fight that traffic which could add
another 1/2 hour to his trip to work. if interested, please reply
