Condos and townhouses round out the housing inventory for those looking for less space, many of which are located within walking distance of commercial areas. Prices for real estate range between $135,000 and $500,000, depending on square footage.According to the CAP Index, Fullerton earns a crime score of 4 out of a possible 10, which is comparable to the US national average.
Recreation at community facilities and Jordan Park
Fullerton Community Center offers residents plenty of outdoor activities. Locals can enjoy gathering at the community pool during the warm summer months, and kids may burn energy at the park’s shady playground or play basketball at the courts. The park also features several little league ballfields and a football field used by the Fullerton Ramblers. The Ramblers hold a carnival every year at the park, a highly anticipated event with rides, vendors, live music and fireworks.More outdoor recreation is found at Jordan Park, which has a pool, playground, and skate park. It’s set along Jordan Creek, where locals can fish for trout or relax and enjoy the water views. The creek extends through nearby Jordan Creek Parkway, a popular spot to stroll through woodsy trails, play disc golf or grow plants in the community garden.
Five schools of the Whitehall-Coplay School District
The Whitehall-Coplay School District serves Fullerton, with all five of its schools set up right next to each other. Clarence M Gockley Elementary School serves kindergarten and first grade, earning a B grade from Niche. Second and third graders attend George D Steckel Elementary before advancing to Zephyr Elementary for fourth and fifth grade. Both schools receive a B-minus Niche score. C-plus-rated Whitehall-Coplay Middle School feeds into Whitehall High School, which maintains a B-minus rating and features an outstanding performing arts program. Since 2006, the program has won dozens of Freddy Awards, which honors regional high schools on live TV.At the crossroads of two major thoroughfares
The busy shopping area is intersected by two major highways, U.S. Route 22 and PA Route 145, allowing for convenient transportation throughout Allentown and the Lehigh Valley. Residents can get to Philadelphia or New York City within an hour and a half. Those looking for further travel need only cross the river to the Lehigh Valley Airport, just minutes away from the neighborhood, to catch regional and international flights.Bustling retail and restaurants of Fullerton
Two malls are divided by Grape Street, including Lehigh Valley Mall, the ninth largest in the state, boasting nearly 150 stores. Right across the street is Whitehall Mall, a large open-air shopping center with several major retailers, like Kohl’s and Bed Bath & Beyond. The bustling commercial area is full of restaurants across a broad range of options, including fast food, popular national chains and local eateries. The Joint Coffee Co. provides a cozy space for a coffee break, while Pocono Brewing Co. Taproom offers something a little stronger just across the parking lot.
