Upper Saucon Township [2] is situated in the southeastern corner of Lehigh County located approximately 60 miles north of Philadelphia, 80 miles east of Harrisburg, and 90 miles west of New York City. The Township is part of the New York Metropolitan Area. And, for decades, Upper Saucon has been a bedroom community for cities in the Lehigh Valley region including Allentown, Bethlehem, and Easton.

The Township is characteristic of rolling hills, farmland, and suburban style development with easy access to PA Route 309, Interstate 78, and US Route 22. It is these characteristics and location that have made Upper Saucon a very attractive place to live for those wanting a somewhat rural atmosphere with access to regional amenities.
