White Oak Homes for Rent

White Oak is a borough with deep historical roots and a strong community presence, located on the eastern border of Allegheny County. The area features a diverse mix of prewar, midcentury, and early 2000s single-family homes, including minimal traditional designs, ranch-style homes, Cape Cods, and bungalows. Colonial Revival two-stories and bi-level homes are also common. White Oak is known for its natural beauty, with White Oak Park offering 800 acres of forests, hiking trails, playgrounds, and a dog park. Heritage Hill Park provides additional recreational options, including a pool and library. The commercial hub is centered around the intersection of Route 48 and Lincoln Way, where residents can find a variety of retailers and dining options such as Rodos Greek Cafe, Rockaway Pizzeria, and Plaza Azteca. The area is served by the Port Authority Lincoln Highway Flyer bus and Westmoreland Transit, though most residents rely on personal vehicles for commuting, with a 17-mile drive to downtown Pittsburgh. Community events such as the White Oak Borough Community Days and the Rainbow Volunteer Fire Company’s car show foster a strong local spirit. However, flooding can be an issue during heavy rain, affecting homes and major roads like Route 48 and Lincoln Way.
