Affordable living in the Industrial City of Farrell
Farrell is a small neighborhood on the Ohio-Pennsylvania border that serves as the industrial center of the Shenango Valley. Most residents are hard-working employees of the large factories and corporations located on the neighborhood's west side. While Farrell is primarily known as an industrial mecca, almost 2,000 single-family homes line the residential streets on the other side of M.L.K. Jr. Boulevard. These affordable older homes are occupied by dedicated community leaders and residents who are continuously working to improve the area through youth programs and community events.
Low-cost single-family homes
American Foursquares and stick homes built in the early 1900s are tightly packed along the grid-like streets in Farrell. Riddled concrete stairways lead to spacious front porches shaded by low-pitched gable roofs. Paved driveways and two-car detached garages provide residents ample private parking at the back of homes. Some ranch-style homes were built between the 1950s and 1970s on the east side of Farrell. These single-family homes extend across quarter-acre lawns and offer paved driveways with attached one-car garages. Most homes in this neighborhood feature three bedrooms and list between $40,000 and $85,000. However, some single-family ranch-style homes can cost around $125,000.
Homes in Farrell come in a variety of shapes and sizes, suitable for any homebuyer's budget.

Farrell hosts the county's National Night Out
To fight against local crime, Farrell hosts the community's National Night Out starting at 7 pm on the first Tuesday in August. This annual event is intended to strengthen the relationship between neighbors and local law enforcement by bringing the community together in a carnival-type atmosphere. Children can play on bounce houses and watch safety demonstrations. At the same time, other residents eat classic festival food with their neighbors and local law enforcement.
Highways separate residences from local industrial plants
M.L.K. Jr. Boulevard runs along the west side of Farrell, separating the neighborhood's residential streets from the large industrial plants that employ most local residents. This major road leads to Interstate 376, which connects the area to Pittsburgh in about 70 miles. In the neighborhood, UPMC Hospital serves the Shenango Valley community and offers a full-service emergency room.
