Nestled only eight miles south of Pittsburgh, Pleasant Hills is just what you’d imagine: a pleasant suburban community. With affordable housing and a blend of longstanding apartments and upgraded, modern rentals, there’s something for everyone. This city boasts a family-friendly atmosphere, good schools, and a very quick commute. PA-51 is your best bet for getting into the city every day for work or play.
If entertainment is what you’re interested in, you’re in luck. Pittsburgh is home to Point State Park, PNC Park, Randyland, and Market Square! Though Pleasant Hill’s proximity to the city is a major perk, this small town also features many conveniences like shopping malls, chain restaurants, and community parks like the Pleasant Hills Arboretum. For more shopping and dining options, check out South Hills Village in Bethel Park a few miles west.
