Beaver, PA Area Guide

A riverfront retreat outside of Pittsburgh

Suburban Affordable Family-Friendly Quaint River

Nestled along the Ohio River, the city of Beaver is the perfect suburb for renters looking for a riverfront retreat. Located 17 miles north of the Pittsburgh International Airport and 30 miles northwest of Downtown Pittsburgh, Beaver is completely commutable. But with its big-city proximity comes its small town charm, giving its residents the best of both worlds.

This historic town offers local gems like the Beaver Historic Train Station and the Beaver Area Heritage Museum on River Road. This city is near the Rochester Riverfront Park, but houses its own waterfront green space at Bridgewater Crossing, hosting community events like food truck days! Irvine Park is another green space in this small town located in the city square. Both affordable and historic apartments are available in this wooded oasis on the river.
