I live in a north end Poconos county (Susquehanna), and we vote like 32D-68R on a good day, but our one township that contains a ski resort (Elk Mountain) is purple, and keeps edging closer and closer to flipping. A lot of urban transplants who lived in cities but wanted to get closer to nature as they aged and/or started a family, have moved out here, and the workforce at the ski area does also skew younger and hippier. Plus there is flight of poorer Republican residents as their property values and thus taxes go up, and also they just want to get away from the "goddamn city liberals ruining our hometown".
