Where I live here in Western PA we have a lot of abandoned businesses where the building is abandoned and allowed to deteriorate and the municipality does nothing about it. Yet on this drive I see NO abandoned businesses. I don't think Carlisle is much richer than we are, it appears middle class, though there may be a bad part of town not shown here. How do they do it? What does the city do to keep the deterioration away? Actually where my niece lives in Cleveland looks a bit like this.
@@MileageMikeTravels I think some cities just keep up with the demolition better than mine does. Even a blank lot is better than a bad building. I notice even Detroit is demolishing a lot of bad buildings and they are probably one of the poorest cities in America but somehow their leaders are interested enough to get it done. Again, I do not think Carlisle is rich at all but they must have better code enforcement.
Carlisle is the County seat, and it not only has Dickinson College to support it, but also the Army War College. There are rough sections, but this drive captures some of the better spots
Still looks like the town I used to stay in 1989-89, not much change at all. Lots of memories.
Kicking around in my hometown......👍

I didn't see many run down or abandoned areas in Carlisle. I'm guessing maybe it's due to the college being there?

there is a preservation effort in Carlisle, as well as industry, military and hospitals and other jobs to keep it up
It's a large logistics center for Amazon and other large companies, so there is adequate employment.
