Munhall

This week i’m going to review a neighborhood outside of the city limits (just barely) but I think more people should learn about it and consider it because its one of the coolest neighborhoods near Pittsburgh and that neighborhood would be “Munhall”. Nearly apart of Homestead Munhall has been apart of Pittsburghs plan to revitalize Homestead. Back in 1910 Munhall had a population of a little over 5,000 and the only products produced in Munhall were Steel products. Home of the “Steel Valley School District” Munhall has only been growing. Riddled full of basketball courts and even an indoor pool I consider Munhall to be one of the best neighborhoods to move to at the moment. On top of being a beautiful residential neighborhood Munhall also is within walking distance to all the new businesses placed in via the Homestead revitalization. If you ever take a trip down to the Waterfront you will still see some of the brick buildings which once stood a strong Steel Industry.
Surrounded by Homestead, West Mifflin, and Whitaker Munhall is full of middle class blue-collared workers who want to be close to the city without dealing with the city problems. One of the original seven townships in Pennsylvania. If you ever get a chance to go down near the Waterworks and Munhall area you will find endless amounts of fun including “The Improv” which is a comedy club next to Dave and Busters and consistantly has some of the most popular acts and is essentially the only notable comedy club in the city. Also make sure you check out Dave and Busters, especially if you’re trying to have a nice meal whilst keeping your kids distracted.
In my opinion Munhall is awesome and if you are looking for a nice place close to the city to raise a family and to have things to do then make your way to Munhall.
