What Makes the Poconos Different
Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg sit where Brodhead Creek and Pocono Creek run down from the mountains toward the Delaware River. In August 1955, flooding from Hurricane Diane sent Brodhead Creek through the area and took many lives. Flood control work since then has lowered the risk, but heavy rain can still raise creeks fast. Homes on low ground near any creek should know their flood zone.
The Poconos are full of vacation and second homes that sit empty for weeks in winter. A pipe that bursts in an empty house can run for days before anyone notices. Keep the heat at 55 degrees or higher, shut off the main water valve when you leave, and consider a low temperature alarm that texts your phone. Snow on roofs forms ice dams that push meltwater into ceilings and walls.
Many homes in lake communities and wooded developments use wells and septic systems and sit on crawlspaces or basements that stay damp. Summers are humid, so mold can grow in a closed up cabin. Run a dehumidifier or air conditioning when you are away in summer. Northeast Pennsylvania also has areas with high radon, so test the basement when you move in.
