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.
