Hmmm. Amanda Seyfried, Christine Taylor, designer Thom Browne, Carson Kressley, author Lauren Weisberger…all from A-town/Lehigh Valley. Not to mention they have an official Apple store. Philly may be slipping;)

Allentown has a lot going for it + it’s only 10 minutes from Blue Mountain.

Agreed with everything has been said about Allentown so far, but I really wouldn’t call it God’s country, the Lehigh Valley is a medium-sized rust-belt metropolitan area (3/4 mil people) and Allentown is still the third-largest city in Pennsylvania.
