SperlingViews - Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania

Being a 40+ year resident of Elizabethtown, I can think of many reasons I love living here...not least of which is the people. It's a wonderful place to raise a family. Quite possibly the thing I love the most is that you really get all 4 seasons here. I'm an avid skier, so I'm happy with getting a full winter season, but I love the outdoors in general and the rest of the year is great for outdoor activity.[read more...]

Central Pennsylvania is a great place to live because of the small towns and communities that also give you access to major metropolitan areas such as Philly, NYC, Baltimore and D.C.[read more...]

I've resided in the area my entire life. We moved just outside the town limits several years ago. We actually wished we had picked a house in town sometimes. There are some great neighborhoods only a block or two off the main streets. Most streets are quiet with little traffic. There is a college in town, but it does not suffer many of the ills of a lot of college towns with rowdiness, noise or litter (like, say, Millersville). Though struggling slightly, the downtown area is maintaining a vibrance unlike many towns in the area. It's a short drive to Harrisburg or Lancaster via major highway for serious shopping or culture. Amtrak trains stop here, and bus service is available. Prefer to live in the country? It's truly minutes away in most any direction. Other than typical PA weather (humidity), and the occasional aroma of farms, there isn't much to dislike.[read more...]
