Catasauqua delivers small-town ease with a storied industrial legacy along the Lehigh River, just minutes from Allentown and Bethlehem in Lehigh County. Commuters appreciate quick access to regional employers and Lehigh Valley International Airport, while residents enjoy tree-lined streets, classic brick architecture, and a walkable downtown that still nods to the borough’s iron-making roots.
History lovers can tour the stately George Taylor House, home of a Declaration of Independence signer, and explore blocks of 19th-century homes protected by active local preservation efforts. Outdoor time is easy to find on the D&L Lehigh Canal towpath, part of the D&L Trail, with serene river views for biking, running, or strolling. Neighborhood parks and ballfields host youth sports and summer concerts, and golfers are a short drive from Willow Brook’s rolling fairways.
Families value well-regarded schools in the Catasauqua Area School District, including Sheckler Elementary, Catasauqua Middle School, and Catasauqua High School, known for spirited athletics, robust STEM offerings, and tight community support. The Catasauqua Borough organizes seasonal events that bring neighbors together, while the Catasauqua Public Library anchors year-round learning with story times, maker programs, and local history resources.
Whether you’re upsizing to a porch-front twin, downsizing to a tidy rowhome, or searching for your first place, Catasauqua offers value, convenience, and authentic character.
