About Nazareth
Tucked into the rolling hills of Northampton County, Nazareth offers a peaceful small-town setting just north of Bethlehem and Easton. Founded by Moravian settlers in 1740, the community still carries a deep appreciation for its roots, seen throughout its historic stone architecture and walkable downtown center. The town is famous worldwide as the home of Martin Guitar, which has crafted legendary acoustic instruments here for nearly two centuries. It has a quiet, neighborly atmosphere with easy access to the broader Lehigh Valley.
Day-to-day life here appeals strongly to families and commuters alike. The well-regarded Nazareth Area School District serves local students, while neighborhood parks, walking trails, and annual festivals give residents plenty of reasons to spend time outdoors. Main Street features an inviting mix of family-owned diners, bakeries, and local shops, all framed by scenic countryside. With Route 33 right nearby, heading out for a morning commute or taking a weekend drive into the Poconos is quick and straightforward.
