Community
Canonsburg is just 21 miles south of downtown Pittsburgh and is located in the region’s most desirable South Hills residential communities including Peters Township, Cecil, Upper St. Clair, Mt. Lebanon and Strabane. Pittsburgh has been designated many times as one of the country’s most livable cities. A friendly, hardworking character and sense of pride permeate the region and its unique neighborhoods. Originally a major industrial center, Pittsburgh has made the successful transition to an economy that is largely based on healthcare, education, technology (especially computer software and robotics), and financial services.
Pittsburgh hosts world-class education including universities like Pitt and Carnegie Mellon, plus nationally recognized public and private schools. The residential options are vast and offer easy commuting from urban, suburban and rural amenities. The city and the region feature dozens of parks and other outdoor recreational attractions including the riverfront and mountains. Pittsburghers are dedicated to their sports teams, including its major-league clubs — the Steelers, Penguins and Pirates. A beautiful downtown Cultural District is home to the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, Pittsburgh Ballet Theater, and Civic Light Opera and numerous theaters and galleries.
