Allentown, PA Apartments for Rent

Allentown is Pennsylvania's third-most populous city and the county seat of Lehigh County, located on the Lehigh River in the heart of the Lehigh Valley region. Founded in 1762, this historic city played a notable role during the Revolutionary War when the Liberty Bell was hidden in its Zion Reformed Church after being evacuated from Philadelphia in 1777. Those looking for apartments for rent in Allentown will discover a variety of housing options, from downtown apartments in restored buildings near the PPL Center arena to residences in established neighborhoods throughout the city's 23 square miles.

Renting in Allentown appeals to budget-conscious renters with one-bedroom apartments averaging around $1,432 per month. The city offers diverse neighborhoods including the historic Old Allentown district, the tree-lined West End with its Victorian and Craftsman-style homes, and East Side communities. Residents enjoy access to cultural venues like the Allentown Art Museum and Miller Symphony Hall, outdoor spaces such as Lehigh Parkway and Cedar Beach, and the annual Great Allentown Fair at the Allentown Fairgrounds. The LANta bus system provides public transportation with 23 fixed routes connecting Allentown to neighboring Bethlehem and Easton, while major highways offer convenient access to Philadelphia to the south and New York City to the east. The city's growing healthcare and technology sectors provide employment opportunities, and local shopping includes the South Mall and nearby Lehigh Valley Mall in Whitehall.
