  • Alan
    "Traffic is okay except in the early morning and late afternoon rush hour times around the Wal-Mart/Ephrata Crossings area where there is still construction and road work, also the bottleneck to one lane has caused problems for years! It doesn’t seem like the township will ever do anything about it and it will get worse when the stores and hotel open!"

    "Ephrata is the central hot spot to many exciting things to do and see! You get the quiet charm of a small city with the resources and attractions of a big city only minutes away. I can take a walk, feed the ducks and watch the children play at one of our two city parks. There are many more neighborhood parks as well. Or I can drive just a 1/2 hour more or less to many theme parks such as Hershey Park, Dutch Wonderland, Dorney, Knoebels, Legoland, Sesame Place and many others. We have all the almost all the major food stores for our area. Any 5 to 15 minutes drive in any direction will lead you to a major grocery store. You can do any type of shopping you can think of. Department store, car, bike, fruit and vegetable roadside markets, dining out fast food or dine in. You truly won’t and cannot appreciate the Beauty, pleasure and convenience that Ephrata has to offer unless you have lived elsewhere. Did I mention it’s also in Amish country? I’ve lived here for 20 years and I’m still finding new things, places and trends! The people are welcoming, friendly and helpful. Come be our neighbor, we would love to meet you! "
