COMMUNITY PROFILE
Lower Saucon Township began as a landscape dominated by Native
Americans. European immigrants later settled in the area and, in 1742,
Saucon Township was formed. It then split into Upper and Lower Saucon,
which are parts of Lehigh and Northampton Counties, respectively. Today,
Lower Saucon Township covers about 23 square miles and has over 9,800
residents. The adjacent Hellertown has 5,600 residents and is located, along
with Lower Saucon, in the prestigious Saucon Valley.
The Lower Saucon area is the perfect place to live with its beautiful varied
landscape with woods and rolling hills, yet it is centrally located near many
conveniences. The picturesque historical city of Bethlehem, with many
unique shops and restaurants, is a short drive from the community.
Bethlehem is also home to Musikfest, the largest music festival in the
country. The Lehigh Valley is just several minutes away and, like Saucon
Valley, there are many shopping centers, parks, restaurants, and golf courses
in the area. The nearby highways provide an easy commute to Philadelphia
and New York.
