I am familiar with the Milton, PA region. Homeschooling in PA isn't that bad.
There is a co-op in the Lewisburg area and also one in the Williamsport area that are quite active.
It is accurate to say that Milton is economically depressed, though it is not far from Lewisburg which has a totally different feel. At one time Lewisburg was rated as one of the best small towns in America.
