Nice town buy dying. 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 11, 2019) Harborcreek is one of the best places to live in Erie county. There is only a few cons about this township. 1. We keep on losing more and more stores. Here in Harborcreek we lost Big Lots, Payless ShoeSource, Kmart, Sheetz & even our Hallmark store. Now we have to drive all the w ...Read More ay to Millcreek to go anywhere, sometimes to the city, and we live deep in the country. 2. Nothing to do here, sure we have shopping and all thats about it. You have to drive to Erie to go somewhere like Waldameer, we have Giant Eagle, Walmart and a bunch of dying shopping centers but that's about it. The good thing about this township is the cost of living, although we aren't fancy down here, this is the country so expect that. If you wanna make good money, you gotta own a farm or work at Walmart or Giant Eagle. Read Less
