Daugherty Township
Described as a "Miniature Americana" by the Beaver County Times, Daugherty Township's slow country living is recognized nationwide. The Daugherty Township resident demographics are proportionate to the country as a whole, which qualified the borough for a 12-year, multimillion-dollar Census Bureau study, "Growing Older in America," one of the largest health and retirement surveys ever conducted. These homeowners enjoy laid-back lifestyles with rural homesteads and convenient accessibility to nearby destinations.
Daugherty Township's residential roads are a few minutes east of Beaver River and busier landscapes. You'll find dominantly midcentury subdivisions built of simple ranch designs and split levels. Properties in Daugherty Township start around $150,000 for a simple 1950s ranch needing a few cosmetic updates. Another $100,000 or so buys a newer build with more recent renovations. Listings rarely exceed $350,000 here, but when they do, you're likely getting a lot of land - somewhere in the 15-acre ballpark. With miles of rolling fields and undeveloped landscapes, there's an opportunity to build here. Invest in an acre or two for $50,000 to create a custom design. Most Daugherty Township listings find new owners within a month. "The market has slowed some, but it's ever-changing," says Michael Pohlot, Realtor at Janus Realty Advisors.
Daugherty Township kids can attend school within the New Brighton Area District. Many start learning at New Brighton Elementary and Continue to New Brighton Area Middle, which both have overall C-plus scores on Niche. The last stop on the public school track is New Brighton Area High, rated B-minus on Niche. The school campuses are clustered on the west side, simplifying pick-ups and drop-offs for families with busy schedules.
The kids can stretch their legs on the school's baseball fields or take a dip in the on-campus swimming pool when class lets out. Fox Run Golf Course fills up when the weather is nice. You can enjoy quiet walks with river scenery at Big Rock Park, which is steps away from the school campuses in New Brighton. Townsend Park is also nearby, where the town gathers for holiday celebrations and local events.
You'll also travel into New Brighton to run errands. Daugherty Township residents stop at Foodland to pick up their weekly groceries and visit the surrounding shops and pharmacies to check off the rest of their lists. There are one or two local restaurants off the main highway when you want a bite to eat but aren't up for the drive into New Brighton's downtown area. Local favorite 68s Feed Mill is an old town standby with a brand-new location. Residents stop in for diner-style breakfasts, and with its heaping portions, no one leaves hungry.
Medical centers, civic offices and the regional school system comprise the majority of Daugherty Township employers. There are also several local businesses (promoted on the town's website), including an auto shop and carpentry services, that employ a lot of locals. "There's also a new ethylene cracker plant nearby. A lot of the region's money is coming from that now – it's brought jobs to the area," Pohlot says.
Interstate 79 is your way in and out of town, with an access point 10 miles away. Pittsburgh's city center is a 30-mile drive from Daugherty, equating to roughly 45 minutes in the car without major traffic delays. "With all the nearby highways, it's a really accessible area," Pohlot says. For peaceful rural living with nearby amenities and connectivity, explore Daugherty Township.
