Perhaps one of our red-taggers who turned into a realtor could use that quote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Great weather to start the week as long as allergies are not a problem! We should see temps well into the 70's today and 80's tomorrow. Next shot at showers looks to be around Thursday. Chester County wide records for today: High 98 degrees at West Chester (1962) / Low 32 degrees also at West Chester (2002) / Rain 4.89" at Coatesville 1SW (1894) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they put the light rail train from Hunt Valley to Glen Burnie (north-south) right thru Baltimore City into my old digs in Linthicum Heights, crime near the stations jumped 50%+ within a year. Fortunately, my house wasn't in running distance to the station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it first opened back in 1992 it was single-tracked the entire route and it took forever to get anywhere. While the speed has improved over the years, safety has not. It can be an interesting experience downtown and south of there these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cursed it every day because every road into Linthicum, except for 1 which I rarely needed to travel, had a crossing which was down seemingly half the time. Life was great for the 3 years before it! Lol. More irritating was that for at least the first 10 years, nobody was on it. Biggest waste of taxpayer money and import of crime for areas near the stations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure tucked away is the right phrase though.Tucked Away In Pennsylvania, This Town Is America's #1 Retirement Haven (yahoo.com) Haha, tucked away isn't the right word. Still a decent place to raise a kid. And overall this whole area is a little oasis especially taking into account cost of living. Not a day goes by where I am not thankful, even when I'm yelling at the sky over miniscule things. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
