Default Possibly relocating- Need information about the Hazleton area, please

Hello,
My husband and I may possibly be relocating to the Hazleton area in a couple of months. We currently live in the south and have read many of the forums here, although most of the forums regarding Hazleton are from years past. Can someone please share basic information regarding life in the Hazleton area currently? We do not have children, live a fairly quiet life, and would like an area where purchase of a couple of acres of land at a reasonable price might be a possibility. We have several large dogs, enjoy gardening, outdoor hobbies, and like privacy. My husband would be working in Hazleton, but a reasonable commute is not out of the question. Any information in regards to what the area is like, the people, the places, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much!

Someday we might have to relocate to Hazleton so I've given some thought to Nescopeck and Weatherly areas, with similar site desires to the OP.

Check out the Cunningham Valley. It sounds like what you are looking for.
