Located about five miles south of Downtown Pittsburgh, Carrick merges the feel of a big city with the charming atmosphere of a small town. Known to the locals as "the Hilltop," Carrick is filled with green space and parks for residents to enjoy. Phillips Park provides many activities for everyone, such as outdoor movies, live jazz concerts in the summer, a dedicated off-leash dog park, fitness walks and 5K runs, and summer day camps.
The neighborhood has grocers, stores, and locally owned restaurants, many of which are located along Brownsville Road, the main thoroughfare in the neighborhood. Shop for fresh produce and support local farmers at the Carrick Farmers Market or try longstanding favorites like Ester's Homemade Candy, which has been in business for over 40 years. For even more options for shopping and dining, residents can hop on Highway 51 or use one of Carrick’s subway stations to travel into the heart of the city.
