Freeland is a hilltop borough with walkable blocks, a proud mining heritage, and quick connections to the rest of Luzerne County. Residents enjoy the convenience of being minutes from Hazleton for everyday shopping and dining, while broader employers, entertainment, and medical specialists in Wilkes-Barre are an easy drive away.
Families value the strong local school network through the Hazleton Area School District, with community-oriented programs and extracurriculars that keep kids engaged year-round. The Freeland Branch of the Hazleton Area Public Library adds story times, classes, and a quiet study spot right in town. Outdoor time comes naturally here: weekend hikers and birders head to nearby Nescopeck State Park for forested trails, fishing, and seasonal events. Local parks and ballfields host youth leagues and pickup games that bring neighbors together.
Commuters appreciate practical access to I‑80 and I‑81, while learners and career changers benefit from the resources at Penn State Hazleton. Health needs are met close to home at Lehigh Valley Hospital–Hazleton, part of a regional network offering comprehensive care. Housing spans classic row homes, updated singles, and investment-friendly multi-units, giving newcomers and long-time residents a range of price points and styles.
