Best Main Street In America
Posted: June 11, 2025 | Source: 10best.usatoday.comIn a recent USA Today contest to choose the best Main Street in the country, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, was the winner. The choice was based on the former steel town’s walkability, a wide selection of restaurants and bars, and a chocolate trail that runs through the town to Main Street. Emporia, Kansas, and Ogden, Utah, were runners-up.
The town was named Bethlehem in 1741, and in 1747, it was the first US city to display a decorated Christmas tree. Bethlehem Steel was the second-largest steel producer in the United States but went out of business in 2003.
