Easy access to highway, grocery stores, parks, shopping. Great location for both first time home owners looking to still be close to the city and families in a neighborhood atmosphere. Not very walkable to any restaurants, coffee shops, etc.

Green Tree is a great community with a small town feel. Great access to the city of Pittsburgh which offers sports teams, cultural events and awesome colleges.

It is a Borough with great policeman and great public employees. They have some great parks and activities that are well-received. The bus service to town is good and depending on traffic you're either 5 minutes or 50 minutes from town. Being located on the west side of the Fort Pitt tunnels is a big plus.
