Lehigh County, Pennsylvania
The Lehigh Valley is a special place, and Lehigh County’s right in the thick of it. It’s in eastern Pennsylvania, not far from Philly and New York. Allentown is the big city here. Billy Joel even wrote a song about it.
The area has a rich industrial past. But these days, it’s all about reinvention. You’ve got your tech companies, your breweries, your art scenes.
Dorney Park is a major draw for thrill-seekers. It’s an amusement park and a water park. Nature lovers dig the Lehigh Valley Zoo and the D&L Trail. From Emmaus to Macungie, each place is its own community.
