Nanticoke, PA 18634

Nestled along the Susquehanna River in Luzerne County, just about 8 miles southwest of Wilkes‑Barre, Nanticoke (ZIP 18634) is a small city of roughly 10,600 people spread across 3.5 sq mi. Once a bustling anthracite coal‑mining hub—evident from landmarks like the abandoned “Concrete City” duplexes built circa 1910—the city has transitioned into a residential community with light industry and the Luzerne County Community College campus on its south end

Today, Nanticoke blends quiet suburban charm—tree‑lined streets and river‑front parks—with a cozy small‑town vibe. Residents enjoy easy access to nature via trails, boating or fishing along the Susquehanna, and local festivals and eateries in and around the Town Square. It’s affordable (home values well below state average) and offers a tight‑knit community atmosphere
