Relocation advice
Starting a new job at Geisinger this July and honestly having a mini crisis trying to figure out where to live lol. I’ll be renting a 1–2 bedroom apartment and originally thought Danville would be fine since it’s close to work, but after driving around there 2 weeks ago… yeah, I realized I seriously underestimated how rural it is.
Now I’m looking more at Lewisburg and Bloomsburg, but I’m struggling to find rentals that don’t feel super old/outdated. Most places I’m seeing are older houses with basic renovations, and coming from NYC it just feels like a huge adjustment. At this point I’m wondering what people in a similar situation usually do. Is there another area I should be considering? I’m not planning to buy right now, and I’d rather not switch jobs because I genuinely think Geisinger will be great for my career long term.
Would appreciate any honest advice from people familiar with the area.
