We don't know for sure yet, but it looks like my wife is going to accepted into a PhD program at Penn State. She applied kind of on a whim, not really expecting to get in. We don't know anything about the state.
Some things I'm curious about:
Where is the best place to live? I assume we'll live near campus unless I get a job somewhere that makes it smarter to live somewhere in between, but are there any particular nice areas, or ones to avoid?
How do Pennsylvanians feel about Californians? I know we're not the most popular state, and I hear there's resentment in some states toward Californians moving to places with cheaper cost of living.
Anything else I should know? I've lived mostly in SoCal for the last six years so I'm sure the weather will be a huge culture shock.
