Amish communities are not only in Carlisle PA but all over the country. Most have started in Lancaster County PA until all the English started invading them. The Amish became Tourist attractions and they moved to more quiet places.

Since Land values skyrocketed in the Lancaster Valley. Their Farms were Ideal places to build housing, so they sold their farms at higher prices and bought up farms in different areas that were cheaper. Most Amish Moved into the smaller towns and areas where they could buy up smaller farms around 100 or more acres.

I know of some that bought up the land next to my family farm and they could purchase much more than they have. They have money because they work hard and watch what they spend on. They don't have to pay electric, Gas, or most taxes like school tax.
