Ranch-styles and Colonial revivals on manicured lots
Those looking to move to Cementon will primarily find houses built from the late 1800s to the present day. They come in a range of styles including Ranch-style homes, Colonial Revivals and Cape Cods with rooftop dormer windows. Properties typically rest along sidewalk-lined streets with manicured lots adorned with established shrubbery and ornamental trees. A cozy three-bedroom, two-bath Cottage could cost around $250,000, while a more spacious four-bedroom, four-bathroom may sell in the low-$400,000s. “It’s still a strong market here,” Mamari says. “Most things sell within three to 15 days. A lot of that is because of low inventory.”

Schools that march to the beat
Public school students may attend Zephyr Elementary, Whitehall-Coplay Middle and Whitehall High. The elementary and high schools both earn B Niche grades, while the middle school scores a B-minus. Home of the Zephyrs, the high school boasts a state-award-winning marching band.

Hanging out in the pool or pickleball court
For outdoor fun, residents head to Cementon Park on Dewey Street. At the 18-acre park, locals can shoot some hoops, play a game of pickleball or cool off in the pool during the summer months. Riverwalk Park, on Front Street, offers a traditional playground for kids to romp around and a section of the 140-mile D&L Trail runs through it, making it a popular spot for walkers and bikers alike. Other pastimes include crossing the Woodward Bridge into Northampton to catch a music concert or the latest flick at the Roxy Theatre, a 1920s movie palace on Main Street.

King-sized slices and house-made cones
From CVS to Redner’s Markets, Cementon residents have easy access to nationally known and regional chains in Northampton, which is just 1 mile east via Route 329. For dining out, Angel’s Pizza, on MacArthur Road, is a local favorite for its king-sized slices of New York-style pie. Be sure to save room for dessert because Just Chill Creamery is located a few doors down. It’s the go-to spot for residents to grab a house-made waffle cone for themselves or a “pup cup” for their four-legged friend.

Hockey games, farmer markets and skiing fun
With a quick 7-mile trip south via Route 145, entertainment on a larger scale awaits in Allentown, where residents can catch a Lehigh Valley Phantoms professional ice hockey game at PPL Center on Hampton Street or support local farmers and food vendors at the indoor Allentown Fairgrounds Farmers Market on West Chew Street. The farmers’ market is open year-round on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. A day of skiing or snow tubing can be had at Blue Mountain Resort in Palmerton, which is 11 miles north by way of Blue Mountain Drive.

GreatSchools:
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.
