Pittsburgh
National publications constantly place Pittsburgh near the top of the list for most livable cities in America, and it’s easy to see why. The city has a rich history as an industrial and economic hub, which led to the construction of many grand buildings and public sculptures which still stand today. Downtown in particular is rich with beautifully preserved buildings and lush public parks dating back well over a century, giving the entire community a timeless atmosphere. Pittsburgh is split into three sections by the rivers passing through the city: Downtown (a.k.a. “The Golden Triangle), the North Side, and the South Side. Each has its fair share of attractions and landmarks: the North Side is home to Acrisure Stadium and PNC Park (making it a perfect area for sports fans), the South Side features big, beautiful greenways and refurbished steel mills, and Downtown is where you’ll find the most variety in dining, nightlife, and entertainment. The Golden triangle area is also a popular area for college students to seek apartments, with Duquesne University, Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh all within close proximity in this section of town.
Belleville
Located in Essex County, bordering Bloomfield and Newark, Belleville is considered to be the Cherry Blossom Capital of America. Every year, Belleville hosts a festival celebrating the cherry blossom trees in Branch Brook Park, complete with live musical performances, cultural demonstrations, food, and children’s activities for thousands of visitors. Shopping options are plentiful in Belleville, with several strip malls and a commercial corridor along Washington Avenue. Belleville is also home to the Motorcycle Mall, a massive destination for everything pertaining to motorcycles and powersports. Belleville residents enjoy access to multiple golf courses, a wide variety of international cuisine, public transportation, and highways. New York City is just minutes away from this New Jersey suburb.
Wrightstown
Wrightstown is an expansive area located northwest of Philadelphia. Although Wrightstown is less than an hour’s drive from Downtown Philadelphia, residents enjoy a verdant setting that offers both a suburban and rural feel. Roads and highways run along the rolling hills and agricultural land connecting Wrightstown residents to the big city. The rest of Wrightstown is made up shopping centers, businesses, and residential avenues. Outside of the city, more adventures await at places like Tyler State Park, Warminster Community Park, and Dark Hollow. Renters have choice of single-family homes and apartments in moderate price ranges.
