Adams County, Pennsylvania
Adams County sits on the Maryland line in south-central Pennsylvania, where Gettysburg's battlefield and borough anchor a landscape of apple and peach orchards running north toward Arendtsville. Tourism, fruit packing, and spillover housing demand from Hanover and York drive the market, with most new subdivisions pressing against the boroughs, National Park Service battlefield land, and agricultural zoning that limit where public sewer reaches.
