Maybe Hershey? Lots of medical employment options there. Lewisburg is further east than State College, but a nice college town. I live in Schuylkill County where the cost of living is super low, and nurses are definitely needed. It’s a rural county within a couple hours drive to major cities.

Tamaqua is thriving. Shenandoah is trying. Mahanoy City has a long way to go.

The coal region is also perpetually about 30 years behind in just about everything urban areas offer.

I live in Schuylkill County and have senior parents in Schuylkill County and regularly drive them to Allentown and Bethlehem for specialists as I also have to do for myself. If your father doesn’t have any family nearby, don’t let him move here.

Cost of living is low, but access to decent healthcare is lacking. I wouldn’t suggest it for your dad.

Also, cable tv was invented in Schuylkill County, so high speed cable internet service has never been an issue for me.
