A historic village evolving with the region
A mixed-use suburban neighborhood on the outskirts of Allentown, Trexlertown started off as a small historic hamlet that has expanded over the years. Today, it is home to major industry and distribution centers, a jobs hub of the Lehigh Valley that still holds to its history. The convenient location is bordered by Route 222 and Route 100, making it easy for residents to get around. “We’re on the major highways, you can get to Philly in an hour, New York in an hour and half,” says Lindsey Kleinberg, long-time Lehigh Valley resident and President of the nearby Emmaus Arts Commission. Yet, the borough itself features enough amenities in or nearby that folks can stay close to home and take care of everything they need. Topped off by the best school district in the region, Trexlertown continues to be one of the fastest-growing communities in the Lehigh Valley region.
Trexlertown is rural, picturesque, beautiful, and has many historic features.
Routes 222 and 100 keep Trexlertown folks moving between Allentown and Harrisburg.

Lots of new housing in Trexlertown
The continued growth of Trexlertown can be seen by the changes in the homes and the market. Historic single-family and twin homes sit in the heart of town, but moving out from the major crossroads there is a mix of manufactured homes in tightly packed parks, brand-new single-family homes in neat subdivisions, and older bungalows and farmhouses on tree-covered lots. Manufactured homes fetch between $50,000 and $100,000, while contemporary townhouses and older bungalows with tree-covered yards usually sell for between $220,000 and $320,000. New subdivisions of single-family homes that are going up usually start priced around $425,000, going all the way up to $550,000 and above. There are several apartment complexes in the northern part of the neighborhood, but the community is still mostly homeowners. One thing homeowners have to consider is that properties along creeks in the area – Spring Creek and Little Lehigh – sometimes have to deal with flooding issues.
Once nothing but dense pristine forest, Trexlertown has been moving forward since its inception.
Trexlertown offers older homes and newly constructed homes in an historic rural setting.

The best schools in the Valley
Students in the Trexlertown neighborhood may attend one of two school districts in the area. Most will attend Parkland School District, rated the Best School District in the Lehigh Valley Area by Niche, starting out at Fogelsville or Jaindl Elementary before coming together at Springhouse Middle School, all of which are graded as A schools by Niche. Parkland High School, also with an A grade, is rated as the Best Public High School in Lehigh County overall, while also being rated at the top for college prep and STEM learning. Some students may attend East Penn School District, and Kleinberg notes that “East Penn is ranked very high, it’s a great school district. They’re highly rated for theater and their music programs are nationally recognized.” East Penn students start out at Shoemaker Elementary, which earns an A-minus. Lower Macungie Middle School earns a B-plus, and Emmaus High School – whose computer programming team has won international tournaments – earns an A-minus.
Another Trexlertown area school is Fogelsville Elementary School, located in Breinigsville, PA.
Springhouse Middle School is located in Allentown and kids from Trexlertown attend.

Getting around Trexlertown and beyond
Limited LANTa bus routes service Trexlertown, and the heart of town is walkable and bikeable; however, running large errands or commuting to work still requires a car for most residents. The nearest airport is Lehigh Valley International Airport, roughly 15 miles away, generally a 25-30 minute drive; emergency care is closer, roughly 6 miles away at Lehigh Valley Hospital – Cedar Crest, the flagship hospital of the Lehigh Valley Health Network.
Lehigh Valley International Airport is just a short drive from Trexlertown.
LANta transit is how you can get around Trexlertown, which is on the Blue route.

A historic tavern and a brand new taproom
A historic tavern, the 1760 Pub N Grille is the most recent tavern to sit at this address, which has been the site of a licensed tavern since 1746. Currently it serves up traditional American fare, alongside brews and more. Just down the road, the Taphouse & Eatery by McCall Collective features a simplified brewpub menu complemented by a selection of their own brewed beers, in a modern taproom. Trexlertown Plaza and Trexler Mall offer major retail stores, along with a Giant for groceries.
The historic setting of the 1760 Pub and Grille is a favorite spot for Trexlertown folks.
A couple heads through the unassuming brick facade of McCall's Taphouse for trivia night.

Biking and baseball get folks outside
Named after the founder of the park and the velodrome contained within, the Bob Rodale Cycling and Fitness Park is home to sports fields, play areas and wooded walking and biking trails. Spanning over 100 acres, it is also home to the Cycling Hall of Fame. Church Lane Park, just outside of the neighborhood, is home to local Little League baseball, while also featuring a large play area, pitching and batting warm-up areas, tennis courts and lighted basketball courts.
If Trexlertown is known for anything, it's cycling and the best place to do it is Rodale Park.
Rodale Cycle Park is a 103 acre park offering recreational and sporting activities for all ages.

Cycling-centered activities
The Valley Preferred Cycling Center, located within the Rodale Cycling and Fitness Park, is host to some of the top track cycling events in the country. This has included Olympic cycling trials and is the home of the World Series of Bicycling, along with the VeloFest, the largest cycling marketplace in the country, held in May and October. Outside of the track, the Trexlertown Farmers’ Market runs every Saturday during the regular season, from May through October, and every other Saturday during the rest of the year.
Trexlertown is synonymous with track cycling and its velodrome is known throughout the country.
Since 1975, the velodrome at Valley Preferred Cycle has hosted world-class cycling events.
