Murray Avenue and Greenville Avenue are two small business districts that make up Greenfield. Within these districts, you’ll find numerous pizza cafes, brewpubs, and a supermarket. Copperfield Kettle Brewing Company allows visitors to create their very own beer to take home.
Locals would describe the neighborhood as quiet with steep hills, with many bus stops situated along the major roadways to make commuting around Pittsburgh simple. Schenley Park is to the north and features historic log houses, sports fields, and a botanical garden. Holiday events occur every December, and Greenville is just a short drive from the University of Pittsburgh via Interstate 376.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
