Mobile Homes for Sale in Nesquehoning, PA

At the base of the Broad Mountain barrier ridge, Nesquehoning is a rural Carbon County borough home to approximately 3,300 residents, as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau in 2020. Although the borough covers an area of nearly 22 square miles, more than half of its residents and almost all commercial and municipal buildings are located in the borough’s Nesquehoning Village. Like many other towns across Northeastern Pennsylvania, Nesquehoning is a product of the region’s anthracite coal industry, which peaked in the early 20th century. Although the industry has been in a national decline since, coal production remains steady in this area, going hand-in-hand with the regional railroad industry. Many residents commute to work in nearby Lehigh Valley or farther away in major cities like Allentown; despite its rural location, Nesquehoning has a couple of major thoroughfares running through it. “The main commuter highway is Route 209, which runs east-west, but it can get pretty backed up around rush hour,” says Kurt Fretz, a Realtor with Great American Real Estate Company who has decades of experience selling homes in this region. Fretz adds that tourists are attracted to this area
