Just six miles from downtown Pittsburgh, McKees Rocks offers an authentic slice of western Pennsylvania life along the Ohio River. This historic borough, spanning just over one square mile, provides convenient access to Pittsburgh's business districts via the McKees Rocks Bridge — the longest in Allegheny County. The West Park neighborhood features well-maintained homes and tree-lined streets, while the Meyers Ridge area showcases elevated views of the river valley. Residents enjoy a quick 15-minute drive to downtown Pittsburgh and easy access to major highways. The borough's commercial district along Chartiers Avenue includes local landmarks like Mancini's Bakery, a community staple since 1926, and the Father Ryan Arts Center, which adds artistic vitality to this historic community. McKees Rocks' blend of vintage architecture and riverside location offers the authentic Pittsburgh experience at a more accessible price point than downtown.
