Why would Pennsylvania's land be cheaper than England's land in the 1600's?

It was free and you can't get much cheaper. When the colonist landed in the New World they saw empty land compared to England where it was owned by someone. Your question makes it seem like there was a real estate agent standing on the shore just waiting for the ship to pull up. There was NOTHING there, so they chopped down trees, built fences, and took what they wanted ( even forget about the Native Americans who all ready lived there, but that is another story).

Indentured servants came over to America, that was a way to pay a trip over. For a few years they would serve the people that paid for their ride over and when they were done they would receive land. Cycle repeats as ex-servants would be land owners. Way cheaper to pay for slaves than to have to keep on hiring.
