The Lehigh
Valley is located in the
east-central region of Pennsylvania,
about 55 minutes Northwest of
Philadelphia and an hour and
a half Southwest of New York
City.
As Pennsylvania's
third largest metropolitan area,
home to some 740,000 people,
the Lehigh Valley offers many
opportunities. Boasting a lower
cost of living than most northeastern
regions and having ample room
for residential and industrial
development, the area offers
all of the benefits of bigger
cities. |

Unlike
people who live in Philadelphia
or New York, Lehigh Valley
residents are only minutes away
from outdoor recreation -
including kayaking and canoeing,
mountain biking and hiking.
A
recent New York Times article
described the Lehigh Valley as
one of the fastest growing "bedroom
communities" for both Philadelphia
and New York City. Pennsylvania
Census numbers show the Lehigh
Valley to be one of the fastest
growing regions in the
state of Pennsylvania.
