Borough of Bath

Borough of Bath The Borough of Bath is a quality community in which to live, work and raise a family. Through it all, Bath's Historic District is alive and well!

The Borough of Bath is one of the oldest communities in Northampton County. Founded in 1737, and nearly centrally located in the County, Bath was once a destination spot for quarry and mill workers, farmers and at one time, was a train stop. Bath was the place for dining, shopping for goods and services, or to find respite in the dusty, dirty hardworking life of the 19th century. With a physical b

oundary of just under a square mile, Bath is a bedroom community with a population density of about 3,000 people. The borough has a robust business sector where roughly one hundred businesses and services base their operations. Bath has a bustling transportation network of five state highways, weaving through the downtown corridor. We like to say Bath is small, but we are mighty! Bath has 34 acres of parks and recreational open space. And the borough has a prized water feature—the Monocacy Creek. The Monocacy Creek is one of only 56 limestone streams in the State and is rated a Class A wild trout stream. The Monocacy Creek ranks 2nd best of creeks throughout the Commonwealth only to be outdone by a man-made creek in Centre County, PA. So, we tend to think Bath has the best creek in the state, naturally. Stop by and visit! We have plenty of local eateries, many of which have handcrafted and homemade greats. Catch up with some friends at one of our local bars. Stroll through one of our six parks (we even have a beautiful dog park). We have a fantastic blend of storefronts and local shops where you just might find that special something the big box stores did not have. Bring your son or daughter fishing to our beautiful share of the Monocacy. Whatever your pleasure, we welcome you to Bath! Where history is nestled in friendship!
