Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Pennsylvania
breaking a lease
Is it true if you get a new job so many miles away from your current apartment you can break your lease with minimal losses(i.e. lose your security deposit? Or can you be forced to continue paying rent even if you move away?

Re: breaking a lease
No....a residential lease is a contract, one that you signed and will be held to, if you violate the terms of said contract then be prepared for a possible civil suit.
Contact my office for more specific advice on this matter.
