About Student Housing in Allentown
Allentown, Pennsylvania is the state's third-largest city, home to roughly 125,000 people in the heart of the Lehigh Valley, and it hosts Cedar Crest College on its leafy west side. Despite its size, Allentown stays surprisingly walkable, with a revitalized Center City and the North Fourth Street and Old Fairgrounds historic districts among its most pedestrian-friendly pockets. The city is famous for its parks, claiming the most park acreage of any American city its size, with Cedar Park, the Allentown Rose Garden, and miles of trails. Culture runs deep too, from the free Allentown Art Museum to the Liberty Bell Museum, the America on Wheels museum, Symphony Hall, and the downtown ArtsWalk. The West End where Cedar Crest sits has its own feel.
