The area is served by the Lake-Lehman School District. Part of Ricketts Glen State Park, known for its waterfalls, lies within Ross Township.

This is the outer edge of the Back Mountain, well beyond the suburban ring. Housing is rural, with farms, wooded lots, and homes on acreage near small lakes and ponds. It draws buyers who want land and quiet within reach of the Dallas area and Wilkes-Barre.
