Luzerne Reviews
Rating 3.6 out of 5 5 reviews
I enjoy that it is not far from any essential stores or businesses needed. The houses are relatively very close together.
Small and friendly little town. You have the usual Valley troubles but overall nobody bothers anyone, everyone is very nice and kind. Every year there’s the fall festival on Main Street which is very nice.
Nice quiet town. Main St has a bunch of little stores and shops. Handmade items and consignment shops. There are some great places to eat and a few places for drinks at night. The police are very active in the community.
