As employers in major metro areas wrestle with how and when to reopen their offices during the COVID-19 pandemic, many are seriously considering the various benefits of relocating to or adding satellite sites in smaller cities with less density.
Downtown Allentown, Pennsylvania, a newly revitalized tertiary city that has already attracted Fortune 500 companies like ADP, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch and more, and is poised to become a smaller-city solution for commercial tenants in the New York and New Jersey markets. With its close proximity to Manhattan, Philadelphia and New Jersey, lower cost of living and doing business, lack of reliance on public transportation, deep talent pool and high quality of life, downtown Allentown appeals to employers looking for a cost-effective and less dense city environment.
