Pennsylvania suffers in best places survey (NWPA Outdoors)

Pennsylvania suffers in best places survey

I'm not sure whether to be insulted or relieved, but Erie, Warren, Titusville and the whole of northwestern Pennsylvania is nowhere to be found in Outdoor Life magazine's list of the top 200 towns for hunters and fishermen to call home.

Williamsport checks in at No. 128, the first time Pennsylvania is mentioned in the West-leaning list. Carlise is No. 155, and Bradford, at No. 164, finally encroaches on the home turf. State College is No. 180, Scranton No. 193.

Even Ashtabula, Ohio, gets some love at No. 93.

Presque Isle does show up -- Presque Isle, Maine, that is, at No. 77.

The winner? Mountain Home, Ark., an Ozarks community with easy access to the White River system and big-bass lakes.

So, what's been overlooked in Pennsylvania? What would our top 10 state-only list look like?
