Dog-friendly places in Allentown?

Random thought, We're a young couple and Homes are going for about $188,900 on average. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Am I wrong here? The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem hit or miss.

I've been here 1 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is traffic. It's established and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the public transit is legit. And if you're into mountain biking, this place is surprisingly good.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Meadowbrook side vs the Riverside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..
