    That’s Franklin County.

    Described as a Republican Party Stronghold, only three Democratic Party candidates for president managed to win the county since 1880. The most recent Dem candidate to win the county was LBJ.

      There’s lots of counties in PA that are deep red but don’t have that amount of medical debt. Is Franklin County riddled with cancer or something?

        No idea. Census info indicates more than 90% have health insurance. Maybe it’s related to distance from major medical centers.
