Centered on the Susquehanna River, 17857 (Northumberland) blends small-town charm with rich history, from the Joseph Priestley House to brick-lined streets and classic front porches. Expect four true seasons—crisp foliage, snowy winters, and warm summers—with scenic river views and an easygoing pace. Life here leans community-first: Pineknotter Days on the square, weekend walks at King Street Park, and quick escapes to Shikellamy State Park’s marina and overlook for boating, kayaking, and sunset views. Daily needs are close by, with Weis Markets and Giant nearby, independent coffee and diners along Front Street, Front Street Station for a local favorite, the YMCA in Sunbury, and shopping options like Monroe Marketplace and Susquehanna Valley Mall. Routes 11/15, 147, and 61 make commuting simple, and Bucknell and Susquehanna universities are an easy drive. It’s family- and pet-friendly, with calm streets and plenty of green space. According to Zillow’s recent market trends, the median asking rent is around $1,050, with most listings between $800 and $1,400.
