I know someone from York. She says a lot of the problems come from the people fleeing Baltimore to York, and how it contrasts oddly with the “I’m from PA but fly a confederate flag” crowd.

I'd be willing to bet that 80% of the residents of southern York County are 1 generation or less moved here from Baltimore (and consequently doubled the school taxes for everyone, which they constantly bitch about now). So awesome having an older modest home where you pay $1500 in property taxes and an additional $4500 in school tax annually, where it was about a third of that 15 years ago.

I bought a home several years ago. Anything I saw in York County I immediately crossed off my list due to the taxes.

That's funny. In Delaware we say that a lot of the problem is Pennsylvanians fleeing Pennsylvania.
