Heidelberg is a Pittsburgh suburb with German heritage
Spanning only a third of a square mile and 6 miles southwest of Pittsburgh, the borough of Heidelberg is named after the German town by the same name, where most of its early residents hailed from before they immigrated to America. The suburb is part of Allegheny County and has almost 600 households. “It is what you think about when you think about a Pittsburgh borough,” says Gina Fonzi, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker, who has worked in the Pittsburgh market for more than a decade. “There are plenty of restaurants, shopping, and basically everything you need is right at your fingertips.”
Homeowners in Heidelberg maintain neatly manicured yards and lawns.
The Chartiers Creek runs around the borough of Heidelberg, but can be accessed by bridge.

The housing market moves fast in Heidelberg
Hilly borough streets slope up and down to match the area's rolling hills. Heidelberg’s home inventory features Pittsburgh architectural staples, including cottages, ranches and American Foursquare homes. Properties are elevated and built off the street with sloping, well-maintained yards and short driveways that lead to garages. Buyers should expect a two-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch to sell for almost $200,000, while a four-bedroom, three-bathroom American Foursquare could start around $225,000. “The inventory across all of the Pittsburgh market is very limited, and over the last six months, it has been extremely limited in Heidelberg,” Fonzi says.
Heidelberg is an older neighborhood and has many homes with great characteristics.
Nicely kept ranches are a very popular home type for people to live in Heidelberg.

Heidelberg has a history with soccer and Germany
Off Industry Way, Heidelberg Park is an open green space with a paved walking trail, a small jungle gym and a swing set. The park also features an indoor community room and a covered picnic area that are both available to rent. Heidelberg has a vast amateur soccer history as the neighborhood was competitive nationally, winning titles in 1929 and 1955. The Heidelberg Soccer Club is still active today and offers teams for various ages. With its large German heritage, Oktoberfest is an annual event in Heidelberg. More recently, it has moved into a fall festival that is a one-day event with live music, carnival games, axe-throwing, and food and drinks from local vendors. Another prominent community event each year is the neighborhood cleanup organized by the local pizza joint, Pizza Americana.
