I use to live in Scranton, it is a pretty depressing area of the state though, lol. At least these days.
Oh yes taxes up your way are very high, but I guess RI isn't as bad as the neighboring states.
i know everyone seems to say the same thing about jobs and stuff in Scranton,
i meet some women there, boy did they ever want to leave
A ton of business moved down south from there. Lots of old retired people left behind. And many lower income types from NYC and NJ have moved in recently. It's not the same old town anymore.
Heck, the show the Office makes fun of Scranton and SNL has made fun of it through the character played as Biden and his connection there, lol.
