The proximity to NYC keeps housing values elevated up there. I know a few people who live in NEPA and work in NYC. Their jobs provide them with hotels or apartments during the week.

I'm talking Bradford County because I have specific experience with it. It isn't very close to NYC.

Tioga and Bradford are 4+ hours from NYC. It's 4+ hours from any major city I think.

It's rich city people moving out of the cities in their retirements that drove prices up like crazy after they had been driven up by the natural gas industry.

Didn’t realize it was that far.. but retiring cityfolk definitely makes sense
