First established as a railroad town, Aliquippa is one of several western Pennsylvania communities that emerged around steel mills at the turn of the 20th century, and the town’s industrial roots still heavily influence the local culture. Twenty miles northwest of Pittsburgh on the banks of the Ohio River, Aliquippa today is a mostly-residential city of around 10,000 people, including many commuters.
The historic Downtown district on the east side features a number of locally-owned cafes and specialty shops in the vintage storefronts along Franklin Avenue; on the west side, another collective of eateries and shopping centers is clustered around the intersection of Brodhead and Sheffield. The rental market in town and in the surrounding area includes a variety of apartments, houses, and condos to fit any taste or budget, from mid-rise efficiency units to tranquil golf course subdivisions.
