Western PA, not bad because Tom Wolf has not been sworn in yet, and hence has not shut down fracking.

You have to remember our local economy cratered in 1979 and stayed there for over 20 years. So in relative terms it looks decent to most people here.

NW PA here... people with wells are scared about loss of income. Other than healthscare and service jobs, most of the heavy industry is gone as it has been for a long time. Every trip to the grocery store or WalMart, the three tattooed single moms in line ahead of me with their broods are paying with SNAP cards.
