Shopping and dining in nearby Bartonsville
Stephanie Carson, a Bartonsville local and owner of Carsons Custom Creative Cakes, says the area has grown since she and her family moved into their home in 2002. “Bartonsville used to be just a truck stop, and it's grown so much since then,” Carson says. “The shopping is convenient.

Colonial Revival homes shaded by trees from $400,000
Homes in The Woodlands don’t hit the market very often. When they do, they can cost from $400,000 to $600,000. Most homes were built in the late 1990s and early 2000s with Colonial Revival designs, wide front porches, attached garages and long driveways. Towering pine and maple trees surround each home, blocking the home’s view from the street. “The Woodlands is a nice community. The homes have acre lots and are built to be sturdy,” Mavrogiorgos says. “The neighborhood doesn’t have amenities, but everything is very well-maintained. There’s not a huge HOA fee. The homes are mainly Colonial Revivals with high ceilings and basements. Basements aren’t common in the Poconos because of the water table, but this area isn’t affected by that.”

Those who want to spend the day in New York City drive 90 miles down I-80, a roughly two-hour trip. “Traffic on I-80 can be ridiculous. It’s easier to get around if you know the backroads,” Carson says. St. Luke’s Hospital – Monroe Campus is off North Ninth Street with an emergency room and specialist doctors. The CAP Index gives the neighborhood a 3 out of 10 crime score, which is lower than the national average of 4.
