The Borough of West Easton, PA was incorporated June 6, 1898. We are an independent borough bordered by The City of Easton, Wilson Borough, and Palmer Township. Residents enjoy a small town atmosphere that has remained free of the traffic congestion and business sprawl of neighboring communities. West Easton offers small town charm, while the Lehigh Valley area affords our residents only short tra
vel distances to theaters, fine dining, and major retail stores. Our children attend the Wilson Area School District. Health care facilities are also close at hand, such as St. Luke's, Easton, and Lehigh Valley Hospitals. Our residents often drive less than 20 minutes to work due to having access to Route 22 and Interstate 78. "When a municipality establishes a page, one of the decisions it needs to make is whether to allow public commenting and how much. In essence the municipality must decide whether its page is a “Traditional public forum” or a “Government Communication.” If a municipality decides to not allow any public comments on its page, it is designating it as a “government communication,” much like the municipal website, and the discussion of the issue of public commenting ends there." ** With the number of "views" sometimes climbing to over 5,000 and with more people feeling comfortable being negative, we have decided to keep the West Easton Borough, PA page as a "Government Communication" page. Please contact the office staff if you have any concerns. Thank you to all of you that tried to keep the page civil, kind and supportive. Thank you for your understanding. ** Written by Tara A.
