I agree that taxes are high in PA but the job market is strong so I think that aspect attracts workers

Re: real estate prices, with the chewy center being in the Lehigh valley near Allentown/Bethlehem there is definitely affordable housing in the area

Not sure on what chewy was paying though so I guess affordable housing really comes down to it being affordable to who? If chewy wasn’t compensating adequately, the workers could be being priced out,

On the other hand though, that area has thousands of warehouse jobs so they would need to be competitive.

Additionally, regarding attracting workers. These types of positions are primarily filled by local workers because people don’t generally move interstate for entry or advanced level warehouse positions
