New York City Gen Zers are moving to this Pennsylvania valley home to ‘Christmas City USA’

New York’s youngest movers have a surprising favorite escape, and it isn’t Jersey City, Philly or Austin. According to U-Haul’s latest migration report , the top destination for Gen Zers leaving the New York City area is Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley, the region that’s home to Allentown, Easton and Bethlehem, better known as “Christmas City USA.” What U-Haul found For its 2026 Midyear Migration Trends report, U-Haul analyzed one-way truck rentals from July 2025 through June 2026 and sorted them by generation, to see where people at different stages of life are actually moving. For New York City’s Gen Z renters, the top five net-gain destinations were: Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton (the Lehigh Valley) Harrisburg-Carlisle, Pennsylvania Toronto Houston Los Angeles The Lehigh Valley isn’t just a Gen Z thing, either. It also ranked No. 3 for the city’s Millennials . And the valley really is getting younger. Its population of 18- to 34-year-olds grew by nearly 9,000 between 2020 and 2024 , putting both Lehigh and Northampton counties in the top 10% of U.S. counties for young-adult growth, according to the Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corporation . “The growing and talented population, particularly that of young people, is the secret sauce,” LVEDC CEO Don

Jersey Shore farm family brings local beef to school lunch trays

Jersey Shore, Pa. — Bridge View Farm, owned by Todd and Casey Bowes, has joined the Pennsylvania Beef Council’s PA Beef to PA Schools (PBPS) program to supply locally raised beef to Jersey Shore Area School District lunch trays. The farm made its first delivery to the district in October. Deliveries will resume in January, providing about 50 pounds of ground beef each month through the rest of the school year. Todd Bowes, a Jersey Shore Area School District graduate, is a third-generation farmer. The family began offering freezer beef directly to customers in November 2025 and now raises about 150 head of cattle, buying feeder cattle and raising them to market weight. The farm takes its name from the one-way Tiadaghton bridge near the family’s home. “People want to know where their food comes from, and we love having the opportunity to share what we do and how our beef is raised,” said Casey Bowes. “So many of our customers are families right here in our community. Knowing that the same beef they trust to feed their families at home can now be served to their children at school makes this partnership especially meaningful.” Casey Bowes, a full-time nurse

Coal Still Burns Under This Pennsylvania Ghost Town, And You Drive Its Empty Streets

Smoke can drift out of cracks in the ground in one tiny Pennsylvania borough. The cause is an underground coal fire that started in 1962 and still hasn’t gone out. About a thousand people lived there in 1980. By the 2020 census, the count had dropped to just five residents.
