Homestead is a small community located about seven miles down the Monongahela River from downtown Pittsburgh. It’s primarily a residential community, but you can find numerous locally-owned shops, bars, and restaurants along East 8th Avenue, which serves as the downtown business district. The Waterfront shopping district is the centerpiece of the community and the borough’s biggest draw for folks in the surrounding area.
Right across the river, the enormous Frick Park (not to be confused with the smaller Frick Park on the south side of Homestead) offers a huge network of forest trails to explore. The close proximity to Pittsburgh proper makes it easy to commute into the city for work or just make a quick hop over to enjoy the shopping, dining, and cultural attractions.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
