The southern end, closer to Dallas Borough, is densely built suburban neighborhoods. The northern end opens into farmland and forest. That split gives the market range, from established subdivisions near the college to acreage and country properties farther out, all inside a top-rated school district northwest of Wilkes-Barre.
