Glendon offers small-borough ease with a surprising sense of access, perched above the Lehigh Canal with quick connections to the culture and dining of nearby Easton and day-to-day conveniences across Bethlehem. Outdoor time comes naturally here: the Delaware & Lehigh towpath threads along the water, part of the expansive Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor that invites morning jogs, bike rides, and scenic strolls. Families and history buffs gravitate to the canal-era stories at Hugh Moore Park and the National Canal Museum just minutes away, while weekend art walks are easy on the Karl Stirner Arts Trail.
Students in Glendon attend the well-regarded Wilson Area School District, known for supportive teachers, competitive athletics, and a solid slate of college-prep offerings. Higher education influences the area’s energy, with lectures, performances, and Patriot League athletics accessible at Lafayette College.
Daily life feels straightforward: borough streets carry a mix of traditional single-family homes and tidy rowhouses, and county services are close at hand through Northampton County. Commuters appreciate swift routes to regional employers, while food lovers enjoy Easton’s indie restaurants, coffee roasters, and one of the country’s oldest open-air markets. Whether you’re upsizing, right-sizing, or searching for a first home, Glendon delivers a practical footprint with river views, trail miles, and city perks just around the bend.
