I was raised in Bucks County and my wife and I were married by the mayor of Newtown. We saw first-hand the transformation of that part of the state into a bedroom community for people from as far away as New York City, who brought with them their brusqueness and Ill manners. As an example there was a small restaurant in town that used to serve breakfast but as it was small you used to have to wait maybe 15 or 20 minutes for a table. For a local this was no big deal - you would just grab a newspaper and read about the crime in Trenton. But for the new folks this was intolerable and there was a lot of yelling. I used to ask people why they moved to the area and they said for the peace and quiet.

Newtown is caught in a complicated location. In the Philly area, but pretty far out. Close but not too close to Trenton. On the side of the Philly burbs that points out towards New York. Part of Lower Bucks County but fairly distinct from other parts of the area like Levittown/Fairless Hills/Bristol. I do really love Newtown and think the historic downtown is gorgeous, but it's hard to say what the town's identity even is anymore.

I really like your unfiltered approach to our nations facts.

Having lived in Lancaster county for over 30 years, I can tell you firsthand that there's a LOT of Rumspringa Amish kids 'driving' drunk. Normally, they'll be at a barn nearby or whatever, and the horse simply knows the way home. Back in 1984, a friend visiting from New York and I were standing outside one crisp October night. Suddenly, we started hearing AC/DC's 'Back in Black' coming up the road. Sure enough, it was a horse-drawn buggy full of drunk kids with a boombox. Neither of us had seen such a thing, and then, to our astonishment, one of them flipped us the bird and said, "Hey! F*ck YOU!", and at first they laughed, then all of us laughed hysterically as the horse was on auto-piliot. 🤣 It was my friend's strange introduction to the Amish and at the time, I had no explanation for it. Now though, I know about Rumspringa. It happens far more common that you'd think. 😉

Great job Nick! Grew up in central PA back from age 10 until high school graduation (1980-88) then moved to the Delaware valley in '92. Your video on Unboxing Pennsylvania part I and Small town Living PA is pretty spot on! Been living in Philadelphia for about thirty yrs. now, and there's a huge contrast between this city and the rest of the state! My folks still live in Sunbury, and I make it a point to visit them every Thanksgiving. When we moved to central PA from NYC it felt like heaven! Now that I'm an adult, and middle age I pretty much see it as it is.. Career opportunity and even jobs in general was scarce thirty yrs ago and still is. Moved back to my parent's house for a few months after my yrs. of active military service, and figured "Yeah, it's time to move on". My three siblings and me now live elsewhere, but try to get together at least twice a yr. in person with our families. Again, thank you for these videos!

There are a lot of amazing restaurants in Erie that have a variety of foods. The weather in the summer is great, but in the winter it sometimes gets bad. There are a lot of cool places to go have fun at. There are bowling places, water parks, amusements parks, nice hotels, laser tag...etc. This is a great place to live or visit! Erie is a pretty decent place to live. The cost of renting apartments isn't too high and there are plenty of jobs available! The only issue would be the drug and crime rate, but I would think that most cities have this issue.

More interviews, please!

Have lived inner city Harrisburg and York. Both beautiful cities but very rough, people are really struggling along with gun violence and drugs. Anywhere outside the city are great places. West shore Cumberland county.

Starrucca Viaduct in Lanesboro Susquehanna County, PA one of the wonders of State. Nicholson Viaduct in Nicholoson Wyoming County, PA. Pennsylvania Grand Canyon starting in Wellsboro Tioga County.

I live in Shamokin,PA and let me tell you this town has got to be the dirtiest township in the state. It breaks my heart I used to be Coal Region proud, now I'm just embarrassed to say where I'm from. This town has so many new people coming because of the cheap housing, the people coming are not bringing anything good. It's now a little Philly. Don't get me wrong Shamokin was never the finest place to live, but we sure did have pride. This area is so poor since Covid things got much worse, houses falling down and laying there for years. People living in house that are barely standing, Gov has all this extra money to help little towns like mine, instead goes to water!! It's a shame what this town is coming down to...

"Some really bad times in the mid 1900s" The 1900s. F*ck I'm old.

I lived in Montgomery county until I was 10 years old. It was extremely nice back then (in the 60s-70s.) I would imagine it’s probably a little different now, but still a nice place to raise kids.

58% of the land in Pennsylvania is still covered in solid forest. Most people don’t realize it.

I love the Pennsylvania videos!

I will never forgive Philthy for killing Hitchbot, gave PA a black eye. Wish we could give Philthy to Jersey, where it truly belongs.

New Jersey can have Philadelphia and New York State can have Erie. The rest of the state is okay, I guess. Lol.

The Pirates actually played first at Exposition Park. Forbes Field was their 2nd stadium.
