Pine Ridge is located in Pike County, Pennsylvania (Part of the Poconos) about 10 minutes south of Milford and next to the Delaware Water Gap national park. Which means you can observe lots of wildlife all around you, like deer, racoons and occasionally even a black bear. The Delaware river separates Pennsylvania and New Jersey, so someone who lives in Pine Ridge is pretty much just as close to New York City as commuters who live in New Jersey or Connecticut. The Pocono Mountains are a popular tourist destination near New York City and Philadelphia. The Poconos are one of the most beautiful areas in the eastern United States, offering many crystal clear lakes to go swimming in the summer, ski resorts for winter fun, honeymoon resorts, golf courses, and the same amazingly colorful autumn foliage that has made Indian Summer in New England world famous. Pine Ridge is just a short drive from many of the Pocono's tourist attractions: Delaware Water Gap national recreation area Bushkill Waterfalls Pocono Mount Airy Lodge Casino Resort Monticello Casino & Racetrack (NY) Pocono Downs Mohegan Sun Casino & Racetrack Caesars Pocono Resorts Fernwood Resort PocMont Resort Great Wolf Lodge Indoor Waterpark Camelbeach Waterpark Camelback Ski Resort Jack Frost & Big Boulder resorts Dozens of world-class Golf courses The Crossings outlet mall Pocono Raceway (NASCAR) Tanglewood Ski Area Lake Wallenpaupack (the largest Motor Boat lake in PA besides Lake Erie!) Below is a map of the greater New York metropolitan area: The Pocono region lays on the edge of the greater New York City metropolitan area and is by far the fastest growing area in PA. Pike County, is growing faster than any other county in the greater New York City area, including New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania! In fact, a few short months ago, Pike County was on place 85 of the top 100 fastest growing counties in America. (The United States has 3,086 counties.) But recently Pike County jumped from place 85 up to place 72 in the top 100! This area is booming! Another reason why the Pocono region is going to continue to grow rapidly is the Wall Street West project. Many Wall Street banks and financial companies are planning to move backup offices into the Poconos, which is not part of the same power grid as New York City. In the event of a major blackout or terror attack, the backup offices in the Poconos will assure that the companies can continue to function. This project will bring over 1,300 very high paying Wall Street jobs to the Poconos and property prices are expected to rise dramatically. While America's population grows and urban sprawl spills out over the landscape, those fortunate enough to own land on the edges of metropolitan areas like New York City can realize huge profits from their land ownership by selling once they are overtaken by the relentless urban expansion. There is a limited amount of land in America, but not a fixed amount of people to live on and use it. The net population of the United States increases by 1 person every 10 seconds. That means every day this country grows by 8640 people - but not by one additional inch of land. In just the 10 short days that this property is up for auction, 86,400 people will add themselves to our swelling ranks, and every single one will occupy additional space from the existing, unchanging amount available. This is a georgious piece of land in an excellent vacation or commuter neighborhood. The lucky winner of this auction is going to get a great deal. Good luck!
