Common Questions About Living in North Hills of Pittsburgh

What is the North Hills of Pittsburgh?

The North Hills is the band of suburbs north of Pittsburgh spanning northern Allegheny County and southern Butler County — including Cheswick, Gibsonia, Wexford, Allison Park, Glenshaw, Sewickley area, Springdale, Verona, and neighboring communities. It is defined less by a single municipal boundary than by its school districts (North Allegheny, Pine-Richland, Seneca Valley, Hampton, Shaler, Quaker Valley, Mars Area) and the I-79 / I-279 / Route 19 commuter corridors.

How much do homes cost in the North Hills right now?

Across the trailing 24 months our MLS sold records show 3,407 closed sales region-wide with a median sold price of $450,000 (about $219/sqft). The last 12 months alone: 2,277 sales at a $434,000 median. By area, medians run from $363,500 (McCandless / Ross) to $563,500 (Mars / Adams Twp (Treesdale)), with Wexford at $525,000 and Cranberry Township at $470,000.

What are the best North Hills neighborhoods for families?

School district is the usual driver: Pine Township and Marshall Township (Pine-Richland and North Allegheny SDs), Franklin Park (North Allegheny), Cranberry Township (Seneca Valley, with Butler County taxes), Allison Park (Hampton SD, North Park access), and Sewickley (Quaker Valley) lead most family searches. Each guide on this site breaks down lot sizes, price bands, and commute reality.
