The commute from Palmer PA to NYC is brutal. Don't be misled by what real estate agents tell you. It is easily 2 hrs. one way. You need to consider quality of life. Your husband will be exhausted. Add winter to the mix and it is a tough, tough commute.

I personally prefer Palmer, Alaska - Matanuska-susitna Count area - but Palmer, PA is almost as good, better commute, somedays....
