Tobyhanna, PA




Summary


Tobyhanna is an unincorporated community in Coolbaugh Township in Monroe County located on Pennsylvania's eastern border. A wonderful vacation and retirement destination, Tobyhanna is convenient to Poconos mountain resorts, the Delaware Water Gap, Interstate 80, New Jersey and New York City. In terms of real estate, Tobyhanna is perhaps most well known for A Pocono Country Place property owners association. We expect Tobyhanna and Monroe County population growth to accelerate, driven by the work from home, second home and urban exodus trends initiated in 2020 by the COVID-19 pandemic.
