Join the Opening List →Bethlehem is the place in the Lehigh Valley where a cleaner should think differently about the shower. Its very soft water behaves differently from the groundwater in nearby townships, and its housing ranges from Moravian era streets to mid century neighborhoods.
Moravian University, founded in 1742, reports that Moravian Church Settlements, Bethlehem became the 26th World Heritage site in the United States on July 26, 2024. Lehigh University's campus sits at 27 Memorial Drive West, in what the university calls historic South Bethlehem. The two give the city a long past and a steady flow of students.
About half of occupied homes are rented. Detached homes make up 36.0 percent of housing units, and attached homes such as rowhouses and twins 27.9 percent. So a cleaning plan here could involve a Moravian era street, a South Side rental or a postwar single family house.
The City of Bethlehem describes its drinking water as very soft and low in hardness. It comes entirely from surface sources, the Wild Creek and Penn Forest Reservoirs in Carbon and Monroe counties, about 22 miles north of the city. Soft water leaves little scale, but soap rinses off more slowly, so you may see more film on shower walls and glass than a neighbor in a hard water township would. Use less soap and rinse well.
Age counts as well. About 31.3 percent of Bethlehem's homes are from 1939 or earlier, and 18.1 percent were built in the 1950s. Older houses have more trim and ledges, and a One-Time Deep Clean with hand washed baseboards and wiped fans and vents suits them well. In a home built before 1978, mention any chipped paint before a visit.
Student and other rentals call for something else. A One-Time Moving Clean at lease end includes the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets, and it can be split among roommates.
Bethlehem takes snow seriously. City ordinance gives property owners and occupants 24 hours after snow, sleet or rain stops to clear sidewalks of snow and ice, leaving at least a 3 foot wide path. The city pre-treats its streets up to 48 hours before a storm and runs road salt on main streets early and late in the storm.
All that salt finds its way indoors on boots. Keep a mat outside and another inside each door, and damp mop entry floors weekly during snow months. See the seasonal calendar for how this fits into the valley's year.
