Hello there and welcome to this UCPlaces Where to Live Tour of Lehigh County, PA. My name is Shelly and I’ll be showing you around this beautiful area. Lehigh County was settled in 1730 and named after the Lehigh River. It is also home to Allentown, the third largest city in Pennsylvania. It’s the Lehigh Valley’s historic charm coupled with its convenient location to greater metropolitan areas such as Philadelphia and New York City that gives the Lehigh Valley its unique identity. Now on with the tour, meet me at the Allentown Art Museum.

Known for the headquarters of Bethlehem Steel, Bethlehem was once one of the largest steel producers in the United States. Now Bethlehem has morphed from an industrial hub to a vibrant city. Bethlehem has plenty to offer but if you need to get away, its close proximity to Lehigh Valley’s International Airport makes travel seamless. For commuters, Bethlehem has easy access to interstate 78, Pennsylvania route 412 and U.S route 22. Just like how Bethlehem shares its name with the biblical city, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania has been nicknamed the “Christmas City”. It won’t be hard to get in the Christmas spirit with Bethlehem’s annual Christmas village, holiday cocktail trails and annual gingerbread decorating contest. To start the tour, meet me in downtown Bethlehem right by the North Street parking garage. Just follow your navigation!
