Irwin offers easy commutes, character and strong schools
Known as the Biggest Little Town in Pennsylvania, Irwin is a Pittsburgh suburb that blends big-city amenities and small-town charm. “There’s convenient access to shopping. They have the basic Target and Walmart sort of stuff, but on Main Street, they have older, traditional mom-and-pop sort of stores,” says Cory Fast, a broker at Foundations Real Estate Agency with nearly a decade of experience. “It has a combination of modern things that people want, but still a hometown feel on Main Street.” The small borough of about 3,800 is located near U.S. Route 30 and Interstate 76, offering convenient commutes around Greater Pittsburgh. In addition to its small-town feel, homebuyers also benefit from highly rated schools and a diverse mix of housing.
Historical colonial and other housing can be found on Pennsylvania avenue in Irwin.
Downtown Irwin is full life all year round.

Mix of postwar homes and newer builds across the borough
Irwin has a broad mix of vintage homes and newer builds. “You have some starter homes and a lot of that stock is from the late 1940s through the 1950s,” Fast says. “Those would be a lot of brick ranches and two-story, postwar builds. A lot of that inventory is getting turned over with updates and upgrades.” These established homes include American Foursquares and cottages with large front porches. They sit close together on streets lined with sidewalks. South of Route 30, buyers can find homes from the 1990s to the 2020s. These are typically traditional brick houses with attached garages. The neighborhoods are suburban, with green lawns and leafy trees alongside the streets. The median sales price is around $280,000, lower than in North Huntingdon but higher than in the nearby borough of Manor.
Well kept single family houses line the crowded streets of Irwin.
Newer constructed homes are found in clusters in the Irwin area.
