Varied architecture in the rolling hills
While the architectural style in Greenfield is varied, its hilly landscapes are a welcome constant, offering scenic views from well-positioned properties. Residents navigate a series of city-maintained staircases, which connect homes to the different parks and businesses scattered throughout the neighborhood. Predominant housing styles include American Foursquares and Craftsman-style dwellings with brick facades. Street parking is standard, and staircases on front lawns are often required due to varied elevation levels. Single-family houses price between $180,000 and $350,000, while recently renovated builds can top $400,000. Multifamily townhouses range between $150,000 and $250,000. Accessible housing is part of what makes Greenfield such a desirable place to live, however, listings do not stay on the market for very long. “The east end of Pittsburgh is always desirable and competitive,” Greathouse says.

Nice, safer neighborhood filled with both students and usual residents. Many bus lines that go in and out of Pittsburgh, and depending which side of Greenfield you live on, you could easily walk to Squirrel Hill which has lots of great restaurants and shops. Relatively quiet area that is mostly residential. Parking is easier here than in other parts on the city.

Quiet, yet very close to the hot spots, and convenient to job centers and the parkway. A suburb in the city.

Greenfield is a great little neighborhood with excellent access to downtown, the highway, and other areas of the city like Squirrel Hill and Schenley Park. A few more businesses (specifically a coffee shop and a gym) would really make the area perfect.
