The Township Now

Today only a handful of farms operate, the mills are closed and the iron industry is completely gone yet Washington Township still thrives primarily as a prime residential community with an ever increasing population located in the primary corridor between more urbanized areas of Pennsylvania-Lehigh Valley to the north, Philadelphia to the south, and Reading to the west.

With the continued development of farmland into residential and commercial development come increasing challenges in land planning and resource uses.

Change is here…….Washington Township will meet the challenge……as our ancestors did so we will face the future "Continuing the Vision and Preserving the Values".
