I just moved to that community 2 months ago and i reside in the willow bend townhomes. I moved from irvington, nj which is extremely violent and i thank God for finding my new PA home. I have no complaints whatsoever. I look forward to coming home everyday. The neighbors are so friendly, and the beautiful thing is they're genuinely friendly. There are good and bad schools in the area. You could research the schools at
SchoolMatters - Home The area where the Willow bend homes are usually considered to be in Bethlehem because it shares the same zip code. The borough is Freemansburg, However. I could only speak for Willow bend community, so as far as that is concerned, i have NEVER seen any suggestion of gang violence. I hope this helps. Feel free to ask me any other questions if you like.
