I am a retired public school teacher and principal, and have first-hand experience and inside knowledge of area school districts and programs. I grew up in the northern suburbs of Pittsburgh (graduated from North Allegheny), and now live in Mt Lebanon with my amazing wife and four children (one in college and three in Mt. Lebanon schools).

So many great places to live in Pittsburgh. Do you have any favorites? Or questions about the suburbs that made my Top 5?
I hear southside is were the fun is at
@@jew1772 Yes, Southside is another great neighborhood with lots to offer - walkable, shops, restaurants, riverfront trail, close to everything.
Good areas Mark. Was originally from Mr. Lebanon and my entire family lived there. Awesome place to live. Close to everything and lots of nice homes in Mt. Lebanon. They have the best fireworks on the 4th of July. Excellent high school football team. My dad helped build the stadium. Seen many exciting football games there.
Hi Keith! Thanks for stopping by my channel and leaving a comment. That is really cool that your dad helped build that stadium!
The more I learn, the more I love Pittsburgh!
Thanks for watching Eric! Such a great city.
I'm going to be moving to Pittsburgh in March and will probably be in contact with you at some point
Hi Parker. Congrats on your pending move to Pittsburgh! You will love it here. And definitely get in touch so we can discuss exactly what you are looking for and answer any questions you might have about the home buying process here in the area. Give me a call anytime 412-758-8000.
I lived in Mt. Lebanon from 2011-2017 and worked at Aladdin's. There's no suburb like it in the Pittsburgh area. Easily walkable, nice shop and easy to get to downtown or shv via the T. I commuted to college from Mt. Lebo for 3 years.
Love Mt Lebanon. That is really cool you commuted to college from Mt Lebanon for 3 years.
I was born in Pittsburgh.. Lived in Etna. I miss it so much. Such a beautiful state. 😊😊😊
Etna is very a cool place. You should move back home!
@@markknowspittsburgh I would love that..
I miss the burgh to i still bleed black and gold
Please make a video of upcoming areas, where you can still find a house in needs of repairs under $70k. Homestead? McKees Rocks? Allentown?
Great idea!
Grew up and lived in Bethel Park, moved to Hawaii, married and moved to the North Hills. (Pine- Richland) for decades!
Hawaii sounds like a pretty amazing to live. Not sure I would ever want to leave there!
So my question is, which suburb gets the least amount of snow since I have only lived in an area that only gets a couple of inches of snow at one time? I've only lived in an area that has only gotten a few inches and by mid-day the snow has melted and the roads are clear. My husband and I are thinking of maybe moving to a suburb that has big yards and plenty of nearby forests.
Snow isn't too bad in the Pittsburgh area. Check out this video - th-cam.com/video/dU8hx-eneIg/w-d-xo.html. Most suburbs within Allegheny County probably similar amounts of snow. But further suburbs to the north in Butler County will typically get more snow than the souther suburbs in Washington County. Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any more questions.
I grew up in Mt. Lebanon in the late 1960's until I moved to Florida in 1986. Lived on Cedar Blvd. Directly across from the ball fields. There were 3 in succession back then. Not sure they are still there. The high school, pool, ice rink, tennis courts and basketball court was all within walking distance of a few minutes. We could watch the fireworks on the 4th of July from our front porch! I still feel sad for leaving. But had to come to Florida with family when my dad got transferred and I wanted to help out. I haven't been back to Pittsburgh since 1999. I am sure much as changed. Before I moved to Florida, I worked at a Ground Round restaurant on Washington Road. I think it is gone now. But one night I made chicken wings for Lynn Swann and Mike Webster!
That is a great story Randy! Used to love going to Ground Round - throw the peanut shells on the floor, right? Mt Lebanon is a great place to live for sure.
@@markknowspittsburgh Yep....lots of peanut shells. lol
I'm a veteran and I'm moving to Pittsburgh. I haven't seen anything about veterans hospitals or clinics where's the located and the good and bad ones
That is a very good question. I do not have a lot of direct information about VA hospitals and clinics. Of my recent clients just moved to Pittsburgh and he is a doctor at one of the VA facilities in Fox Chapel. Feel free to message me directly, and I can see if I can get you more information. (markmcclinchie@kw.com)
Bethel park esp southern bethel park is awesome.
Agreed!
Can you show some houses in and around Etna? 😊😊😊😊
Thanks for watching. Absolutlely. I will add Etna to my future neighborhood tour list. Stay tuned.
Thank you
Hello Mark, I'm planning on moving to Pittsburgh and was wondering if you know you any plans that help a first time home buyer in Pittsburgh. Please contact me here if you do.
Yes I would be glad to help. Lots of options and loan programs for first time home buyers. Also have programs for down payment assistance. Give me a call or text at 412-758-8000.
Cool vlog channel on TH-cam
Thanks for checking out the video. Lots of cool videos in the works.
Here's my sitch: My father died a few years ago, didn't leave much money, and we're getting ready to run out. My mother only gets around $360 after paying for Medicare, so she's dipping into the $13,000 remaining in savings to cover what that $360 doesn't cover, so it's around 1300-1400 a month. We have about 10 months before the money runs out.
I'm disabled, and I can't get work where we live in southern Georgia because of it. I have a life-threatening photosensitivity disease and must wear an all-leather outfit just to leave the house. I need to move up there just to find work I can do, but that can only happen if my mother sells the house and comes with me. At best, my mother might make 40k selling the house but she's slow to do anything, so I'm guessing she might get only half that by the time she gets around to it, due to the emerging shift in the housing market. So that means enough cash to cover 1 or maybe 2 years of living expenses, including leases. I know from past experience that I can't move up there if I can't cover at least a year of expenses without working.
I have no verifiable rental or work history because I've been trapped in this situation with them for decades. That means I have no real chance of getting into a place on my own, so she has to move with me to secure a place in her name or stay here and secure a place and pay the rent while I find work gainful enough that I can take over the lease. I can't live with roommates on account of my condition, and I can't survive in the hood. We both need to be in a safe neighborhood near downtown (if she comes with), preferably in the triangle, due to her age/medical requirements and because it will make things easier for me workwise if I'm equidistant from everything.
All I have experience in is light industrial labor, so that limits my options quite a bit. It also means the warmer months will be most difficult, as I might not be able to work at all. Because of the leathers and my size (220 pound bodybuilder frame), I can't really work in any labor environment with a temperature above 65 degrees, or be out walking around when it gets warmer than that.
Any suggestions of what I can do to make this transition more survivable? This is the end of the line for me. It's literally do or die. I don't have anywhere else to go, anywhere else I can go, and nothing to fall back on if I fail. I will just end up homeless and dead if I can't make this work.
So sorry to hear abou your situation. Feel free to call me directly if there if there is anything I can do to help. 412-758-8000.
Pittsburgh Tx
The only Pittsburgh is spelled with an H. And the Pittsburgh metro region has a population of 2.5 million. We have three major sports teams (Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates) along with a dozen universities, hospitals, and Fortune 500 companies.
Pittsburg, Texas has a population of 4500. Lots of Pittsburg towns out there as well - California, Florida, Kansas, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, and several others.
I have a question I was thinking about living in Pittsburg in the future however Do they have nice affordable houses🤔
Yes, the median home price is $180k in the Pittsburgh area - much lower than many other areas of the country. The overall cost of living in Pittsburgh is quite affordable. Feel free to call/text me at 412-758-8000 or email me at markmcclinchie@kw.com, and I can provide more specific details that fit your needs.
Mark Knows Pittsburgh - Real Estate Agent okay thank you 😊 🙏🏽 I’m working on graduating and being able to get a house in the future so I’m looking around. Definitely will message you with questions
@@markknowspittsburgh lol 180,000 u can get beautiful homes for 30 to 60,000 in Vandergrift , Leechburg, Ellwood city, Butler, Ford City and Kittanning to name a few . No-one I know can afford 180,000 that is insane . 40,000 is reasonable for a nice home ure comment is insane
Also Washington county is dirt cheap but I don't like it and Ohio and weirton west Virginia is dirt cheap . My whole family is in real estate and i stalk real estate sites daily. Sharon PA also had dirt cheap home so does New Castle u can get a mansion for 40,000 but it's too dangerous of an area , freedom and leetsdale homes can go cheap too. If u pay over 60,000 u a re a fool I have friends all bought beautiful homes for 30 to 60,000 , ure 180,000 saying that is cheap I laughed so hard i fell on the floor lol that is rip off real estate California style we don't do that here
ALSO west deer is nice but is allegheny county so taxes are too high . Taxes should be about 700 dollars a year not 2,000 a year lol
How could you include ‘Mt. Lebo and USC and ignore Bethel Park? Pine Township? Richland ?
Hi Connie. I appreciate your question. There are so many great neighborhoods in Pittsburgh to choose from. Which is why I have made dozens and dozens of videos that highlight many of them. I did feature Bethel Park in several other videos - th-cam.com/video/wYErTFj5GMo/w-d-xo.html , th-cam.com/video/52AvpLWZG1A/w-d-xo.html . I have also featured Richland Township in this video - th-cam.com/video/v3BxUHnrUno/w-d-xo.html. And Treesdale in this video - th-cam.com/video/2Fk5P6sTsqE/w-d-xo.html.
Easy...Niche consistently ranks Mt. Lebanon ahead of the rest. Check it out.
Thanks @@waltkeast9777. I think Connie just really likes the places where she has lived before. Makes sense. To each their own.
@@waltkeast9777 bethel is awesome.

So long as they stay away from New Sewickley Township, Beaver Co. We're full.
New Sewickley Twp is a great area. 13 homes currently for sale!
MOON😂😂😂😂😂😂
Have you been there? Its a very nice community. You should also check out Mars - another suburb of Pittsburgh.
Kinda from there
Which suburbs doesn’t mind people of color moving in? I’ve been wanting to move to Pittsburgh but I heard it’s very racially segregated.
The views of an entire community being accepting and welcoming to people of color with any amount of accuracy is probably impossible to identify. Pittsburgh (like many metro areas) does have divided communities and within those communities there are incredibly open and caring individuals and I would suspect there are also some folks with ignorant and biased tendencies. There are communities where statistically people of color are in higher proportion to others but that doesn't necessarily answer your question. My suggestion would be visiting first hand communities to get a feel for the place.
