Just on the other side of the Delaware River, and north of Allentown is the semi-rural community of Stroudsburg. East Stroudsburg is just a couple of miles away, and between the two communities, there is plenty on offer for new and existing residents!

East Stroudsburg has a wonderful university campus that sprawls over 213 acres and offers the latest in curriculum, and many wonderful classes. With New Jersey and New York just across the river, the chances of finding great jobs after graduation is almost guaranteed.

This is an area of breathtaking beauty too, not only with the river, but also the Kittatinny Mountains across the river, and Delaware Water Gap just a few miles upstream. The water keeps the region extremely green through all seasons, and makes for great outdoor activities.

Within Stroudsburg itself are several golf courses, and hiking trails as well as parks for both children and adults to enjoy. This is a town that has its residents best interests at heart and is always striving to ensure that all peoples' needs are met, from the youngest to the most senior.

In the spring, people enjoy the emerging wild flowers, ride the whitewater and fish the cascading streams. Autumn brings flaming foliage and weather that's wonderful for golf, tennis, hiking, and fishing. Winter sparkles with skiing, skating, snowboarding and snowmobiling. What else suits your fancy? Try horseback riding, fine dining, and horse racing. There's something happening any season of the year to pique your interest.
