Residents connect via a community newsletter, meetings at the Mary Meuser Memorial Library, and through working or volunteering at the neighborhood Easton Hospital.
La Perla Tapatia, a family-owned restaurant, and Pints & Pies Neighborhood Pub offer residents great places to gather to share a meal or cheer on local teams.

Great schools, and great area to live. I lived here 11 years with my family. My daughter graduated from Wilson area high school in 2015 and my son is a freshman now. I am attending Northampton Community College which is a close commute, about 15 minutes. Love my neighborhood.

I love this area due to the variety. You go go visit the city and walk around downtown easton shopping or viewing historical sites. You can also hop onto Rt.33 and go hiking only 15-20 minutes away.
