Convenient suburban living meets rural remove in Jackson Township. The northern Pittsburgh area's history dates to the early 1800s, with fields of undeveloped pastureland serving as a scenic relic of its past. The suburb sits square between busy central Pittsburgh and remote bucolic communities, providing homeowners the best of natural scenery and commercial accessibility.

Residential development is growing in this part of town, where buyers can find homes priced from $275,000 to $450,000. Toward the lower end, you can settle into an early 1900s home with historical character and lots of land – great for the buyer ready to remodel and personalize outdated finishes. Brand-new builds in sidewalk communities fetch higher sums, with updated layouts, farmhouse-style design motifs and turnkey appeal. Prices increase with the size of the home, and these turnkey listings go quickly, selling within a week or two on the market.

The Seneca Valley School District serves many Jackson Township kids who begin learning at Connoquenessing Valley Elementary, with an overall B score on Niche, before transitioning to Ryan Gloyer Middle and wrapping up at Seneca Valley Senior High. The upper schools are well-known for their top-rated academics and carry a prestigious A-minus score on Niche. All three spots are on neighboring campuses, making drop-offs and pickups faster and simpler. Kids can also take the bus to and from school from the designated spots determined by the district.

Community meetings are held weekly in Jackson Township, with well-documented notes and updates reliably posted to the website to keep everyone informed. You'll also find a full event schedule here, including the standout Touch-a-Truck at Sippel Reservoir Park, where kids can climb around on heavy machinery while visitors snack on refreshments and listen to live music. Jackson Township's Zelienople Community Park is a beloved community gathering place two blocks from the town center. There's something here for almost every visitor, from the swimming pool to the skate park, the ball fields and the playground. The park's paved path climbs steep hillsides, which make for a challenging run, walk or ride. The community gathers here for seasonal celebrations like the Independence Day fireworks show and live music events. Bring the brood to Elevate Trampoline Park on inclement weather days, where kids of all ages can bounce until they tire out. The massage chairs and Beer Hut keep caretakers comfortable while the younger ones play.

Jackson Township locals refuel after a long day at a local eatery on the main drag. Della Terra's stylish setting is the go-to for a sit-down meal, where pasta is always in demand. Pittsburgh's brewery hubbub is bubbling up here, and ShuBrew is a town favorite with a rooftop terrace, craft drafts and global bites. Catch a show at The Strand Theater after your meal, a performing arts center featuring classic films and live acts. Northgate Bilo Foods & Pharmacy is your neighborhood grocer and a minute or two up the road. Your closest big box stores are about 15 minutes away in Cranberry Township, where you'll find Walmart, Target, Lowes Home Improvement and much more.

Interstate 79 runs straight through town, giving Jackson Township homeowners a direct route to Pittsburgh's city center and beyond. The Butler Memorial Hospital and Armstrong, a cable television and internet service provider, are among the region's most prominent employers, and most residents travel by car in this developing locale. Find Jackson Township in the middle of rural seclusion and suburban possibility.

GreatSchools: 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.
