What it’s like in the borough of Brentwood
Brentwood is an old-fashioned streetcar suburb in the South Hills of Pittsburgh. Sidewalks connected its ranging, rolling hills of single-family homes to a popular community park, library and business district. The borough bursts with local pride during annual holiday parades and at sporting events for its small, walking school district. Easy access to state Route 51, Brownsville Road and Pittsburgh Regional Transit buses makes Brentwood commuter-friendly without compromising its quieter, walkable small-town sensibility.
Brentwood offers a quiet South Hills setting near Brownsville Road.
Brentwood offers local dining, parks and shops throughout the borough.

Types and prices of homes in Brentwood
Hilly side streets sprout from Brentwood’s main roads, lined by a mix of classic single-family home styles. Some Foursquares and bungalows have been standing since the early 20th century, but other ranch-style homes, Cape Cods and colonials were built closer to the midcentury. Most houses are detached, but twin homes also pop up throughout the community. Prices typically range from the low $100,000s to the upper $300,000s, depending on renovation levels. Properties needing serious work can go for less. Because borough residents once relied on streetcars or their own feet to get around, houses stand close together on streets lined by sidewalks. Some residents have garages or small driveways, but others rely on street parking.
Brentwood homes often show the borough’s strong community pride.
Brentwood’s mix of early 20th-century and midcentury homes is common across the borough.

Attending the Brentwood Borough School District
The Brentwood Borough School District serves the community, including the highly rated Brentwood High School, which is part of a combined middle/high school campus. "It’s a walking school district, which means there’s no busing,” says Darlene Kruth, a real estate sales agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices who’s specialized in the Pittsburgh area for nearly 20 years. “That appeals to some buyers versus others.” The property tax rate is higher in Brentwood because of the school district’s small size.
Brentwood High School and Middle School share a central walkable campus.
Elroy Avenue Elementary School serves families on Brentwood’s east side.

Getting around on PRT buses and driving to PGH
Route 51 and Brownsville Road are the two major arteries that connect Brentwood to other South Hills communities and Pittsburgh. A handful of Pittsburgh Regional Transit bus routes make stops along these roads. Commuters can rely on cars or PRT service to reach:
Allegheny Health Network Brentwood Neighborhood Hospital
Downtown Pittsburgh, 6 miles away
Pittsburgh International Airport, more than 20 miles from home
Where to enjoy a meal or get groceries close to home
Between businesses on Route 51 and Brownsville Road, Brentwood has access to specialty businesses and diverse, locally owned and chain restaurants. Giant Eagle anchors the Brentwood Towne Square commercial plaza at the crux of these two thoroughfares. Some popular local restaurants include:
The Crack’d Egg, a spot for classic diner breakfast fare
Namaste Momo Corner, a favorite for Nepalese cuisine
Rowdy BBQ, a casual place to pick up barbecue staples or a cheesesteak
Love Made Edible in Brentwood is a frequent stop for local sweets.
The Madman’s Moustache in Brentwood features frequent vinyl finds and art.

Amenities at Brentwood Park programming at the local library
At Brentwood Park, you can take a dip in the seasonal swimming pool, hit the playground and do laps around the walking track. Its many athletic courts and fields host games and practices for Brentwood schools and youth sports leagues in the Brentwood Athletic Association. The Brentwood Civic Center can be rented for private events. The nearby Brentwood Public Library offers another place to spend some time indoors, whether you’re browsing the shelves or heading to programs like children’s story times or adult yoga classes.

Community spirit and events throughout the year
Brentwood is known for being an active, close-knit community, something that shows during the borough’s many annual traditions. “They have a huge Fourth of July parade,” Kruth says. “They do a 5K prior to the parade. There’s a lot of participation from the organizations and community that turns out for it.” Throughout the year, you can look forward to meeting Santa at the Brentwood Holiday Magic event or taking the kids to the Pumpkin Patch in the Park fall festival.
