This is Pennsylvania’s ‘most overpriced family day out,’ study states
It’s no secret that things that used to be within reach for most families are now significantly more expensive.
As such, many may observe a heightened focus on which family pastimes simply burn holes in your wallets and which give you the most bang for your buck. This one in Pennsylvania has been found to be among the former, at least, according to a new study.
CouponBirds — which is described by its “About Us” page as a company that “focus[es] on collecting, validating, and ranking optimal coupons, to help online shoppers save both time and money” — published a report last week which asked the question “Are These U.S. Family Attractions Too Expensive For What They Offer?”
Researchers answered this question by forming a list of 35,000 family-friendly attractions across the United States of America by searching for ones that were “Good for Kids” by each state’s TripAdvisor page.
Each attraction that was found was then analyzed based on whether or not the word (or words relating to) “expensive” popped up in their reviews. Each was then ranked and the study, finalized.
Hershey’s Chocolate World in Hershey was thus determined to be Pennsylvania’s worst-value attraction for families. On the bright side, at least it didn’t crack the top 20.
No, reader, that honor goes to the likes of Walt Disney Resort, Universal Studios, and Disney’s Magic Kingdom — all of which are in Floria — which took the third, second and first spots, respectively.
“Disney fan website Inside the Magic notes that, in addition to being highly expensive, the magic Kingdom Park has lost much of its ‘magic,’” reads the report. “Overcrowding, long queues and broken rides contribute to a significantly lower overall TripAdvisor rating thank parks Hollywood Studios or EPCOT.”
Other attractions that made it among the top 20 worst for families in the nation were Cedar Point in Ohio — which was ranked 18th overall — and Dollywood in Tennessee (12th).

Quakertown police chief on leave after clash with student protesters
From Delco to Chesco and Montco to Bucks, what about life in Philly’s suburbs do you want WHYY News to cover? Let us know!
Quakertown Police Chief Scott McElree is on leave after he was seen on video placing a student in a chokehold during a high school walkout earlier this month.
Borough Solicitor Peter Nelson told 6abc and other outlets Friday that McElree, who also serves as the borough manager, is currently on workers’ compensation leave. A request for comment from Nelson was not immediately returned Saturday.
The Bucks County District Attorney’s Office is currently investigating the police department’s response to a student-led protest against the Trump administration federal enforcement actions on Feb. 20.
After more than 30 students walked out of Bucks County’s Quakertown Community High School, a violent confrontation with Quakertown officers saw at least five students arrested. The students have since been charged with aggravated assault, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer.
Police claim that students threw snowballs at the responding officers on the scene and kicked their cars.
