Excellent article, speaks volumes. We left Denver metro, CO for the Black Hills of SD Feb 28, 2021 for the same reasons.

Thank you. This deserves a wide circulation. Makes me want to visit Jim Thorpe. Sounds like Florida.

I bet restaurants just outside the city limits are cheering, just as stores right outside the city did when Philly imposed their soda tax and cigarette tax.

FWIW, I spent over a dozen years in (West) Philly, first during my youth, and again during and shortly after my college years. I left for good in 1985 and I don't miss it a bit.
