Summit Hill, PA Apartments for Rent

Summit Hill, Pennsylvania, sits atop Pisgah Mountain at an elevation of 1,510 feet. This historic borough serves as home to some of North America's earliest coal mines, established in 1792, and was the western terminus of the Mauch Chunk Switchback Railway. The borough's motto, "Where it all began," references the 1791 discovery of anthracite coal on Sharpe Mountain that shaped the region's development.

Located in Carbon County, Summit Hill spans approximately 9 square miles and offers convenient access to neighboring communities like Lansford and Jim Thorpe, just 6 miles northeast. The area provides more affordable housing options compared to Pennsylvania's metropolitan areas. Outdoor recreation opportunities abound at nearby Mauch Chunk Lake, while Pennsylvania Route 902, running through town, connects residents to the broader Lehigh Valley region.
