The 100 Most Redneck Communities In Pennsylvania: Is Your Town On The List?

What does it mean to be a redneck?

That’s what RoadSnacks,net, the purveyor of every manner of ranking of ranking of Pennsylvania municipalities in recent weeks, tried to narrow down to a science with their latest list.

We now know the Keystone State’s snobbiest, best, and most dangerous communities. But “redneck” may take the listicle idea to an extreme.

Using a combination of scientific and not-so scientific measurements, the study authors created a list of 100 towns that best fit their subjective criteria.

Their methodology included the following:

• Number of high school graduates
• Number of dive bars per city
• Number of mobile home parks per capita
• Number of tobacco stores per city
• Number of guns and ammo stores per city
• Walmarts, Waffle Houses, Bass Pro Shops, and Dollar Generals nearby

Several communities from Montgomery, Chester, Bucks, and Delaware Counties make the list, even though they are at a disadvantage compared to the rest of the state, because the southeastern corner is the most populous.

Conshohocken led the way for the region with a 14th place ranking.
