Description

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, PA — Data journalism site Stacker has compiled a list of the top Pennsylvania counties in which to retire, and Montgomery County has come in at Number 3. Neighboring Delaware County ranked in at Number 12 while Bucks County, which is also included in the five-county Greater Philadelphia region, also cracked the top 25, coming in at Number 21. Chester County, which is also considered a member of the five-county region, did not make the cut in the top 25. A possible reason could be the tax-rate: Chester County is known as having some of the highest property taxes in all of Pennsylvania. As for Montgomery County, Stacker, which says it based its rankings on the website Niche, noted that the county is good for retirees due to the cost of living, weather and outdoor activities. It named the communities of Penn Wynne, Ardmore and Narberth as some of the top places to live within the county during retirement years. All three towns got an A+ rating.
