Hebron
From urban townhouses to suburban cottages
The gridded city blocks of Hebron vary from the northern side of U.S. Route 422 to the south. To the north, the narrow one-way streets are flanked by duplexes and narrow two-story cottages in Italianate and Victorian styles, framed by sidewalks and street parking. To the south, there’s a bit more room to breathe, with more single-family homes with grassy lawns and driveways leading to detached garages. Single-story cottages, ranch-style homes and Cape Cods are more common here. While townhouses and duplexes tend to be priced in the $100,000 to $185,000 range, detached single-family homes sell at a slightly higher price point of $135,000 to $220,000. Slightly more than half of residents in Hebron own their homes.

Within 2 miles of suburban Lebanon parks
Multiple community parks are within a couple of miles of Hebron — notably, South Hills Park is a favorite among Lebanon families for its wooded walking paths that encircle popular sporting facilities and a disc golf course. Although the larger park closes for winter, the playground is open year-round. Ironwood Community Park is just east of the neighborhood and has sand volleyball courts, basketball and tennis courts plus a playground of its own. Some of the city’s largest parks, such as Stoever’s Dam Park and Coleman Memorial Park, are just north of Downtown Lebanon, or within 5 miles of Hebron. These tend of the sites of popular city events, such as the summer concert series held at Coleman Memorial Park.

Dine in Downtown Lebanon and shop along Route 422
Hebron is close to well-known Downtown Lebanon restaurants such as the Lebanon Gin Mill, which began in the 1930s as a beloved hangout for local steel mill workers. Today, its interior keeps the retro vibe alive with wall-to-wall vintage beer signs. Additional eateries and a slew of locally owned shops can be found farther along Cumberland Street. East of the neighborhood’s residential blocks is a stretch of shopping centers and fast food chains that extends along U.S. Route 422. Dunham’s Sports, the Home Depot, Giant and Walmart Supercenter are just a few of the big-box stores in and around the neighborhood, with a handful of local businesses sandwiched in between the strip malls. The southern section of the neighborhood consists of nursing and retirement homes as well as the Lebanon County Correctional Facility.

Walkable streets a couple of miles from downtown
Much of Hebron comprises gridded streets, making it somewhat walkable and bikeable. Lebanon Transit buses stop at the Home Depot and on 5th Avenue, providing transportation to Downtown Lebanon, WellSpan Hospital and Weis Markets, all of which are within 2 miles of the neighborhood. The nearest international airport is 35 miles west in Harrisburg, while Philadelphia is about 90 miles east. “You have really good proximity to employment, being along the major thoroughfares,” says Butler, referring to U.S. Route 422, which runs through the neighborhood. “Lots of people commute. Plus, there’s just a lot to explore in the rest of Lebanon County.”

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
