Commute to York
Dover sits northwest of York along Route 74, offering a rural-suburban lifestyle without being remote. The borough itself is small and quiet, but the surrounding Dover Township has seen steady growth as buyers look for more land and lower prices than what you'll find closer to York.
What you get in Dover: larger lots, older farmhouses with acreage mixed with newer subdivisions, and a genuinely friendly small-town atmosphere. Route 74 gets you to central York in about 12 minutes. The Dover Area School District has invested heavily in facilities and programming in recent years.
