That seems like just some random place not mentioned in the article?

The article mentionedthe county of Erie. And the quote wasn't about any city in particular, just about generic "many older cities".

The city of Erie didn't come up in the article.

"Joshua Vincent’s piece on land taxation in Pennsylvania examines relative tax rates in Erie County, Pennsylvania, finding that property owners in the city of Erie proper pay close to double the taxes that those in many of Erie's suburbs pay."
