Why Live in Hays

The area is known for Hays Woods, a 660-acre expanse of forests, streams, and valleys, which is Pittsburgh's largest undeveloped tract of land. This park is a haven for wildlife, including a pair of nesting Bald Eagles that have become local celebrities. Outdoor enthusiasts can explore the trails and enjoy the natural beauty. For additional outdoor activities, residents can visit the nearby Sandcastle Water Park. The neighborhood features American Foursquares with vinyl or brick exteriors, ranch-style homes, and bungalows, often on larger lots with running streams rather than sidewalks.

Churchview Farm within Hays provides seasonal farm-to-table dinners, and Holy Angels Church Hall serves the local Catholic community. Students attend Pittsburgh Mifflin K-8 and Allderdice High School, the latter of which has a high rating and an engineering magnet program.
