Quick commutes and rural views define North Strabane Township
About 25 miles south of Pittsburgh, North Strabane Township is a small community that blends suburban convenience with peaceful living.

"When you get off Route 19, as you venture into the neighborhood, it has a very bucolic feeling." The community's west side features subdivisions, major shopping centers and a wide array of dining options. Heading east, the area becomes more rural, with rolling hills and countryside properties.
