About Penn
Hills
Penn Hills, located between Wilkinsburg and Plum, is a residential and hillside Pittsburgh neighborhood with wooded ravines and a patchwork of mid-century streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the William Penn Highway corridor near Rodi Road, where diners, barbershops, and long-running local storefronts line the drive. Housing leans toward brick ranches, split-levels, and postwar colonials set on deep lots with mature trees. Penn Hills Shopping Center and the Penn Hills Library anchor daily errands and community programming. Green space threads through places like Blackridge Park and nearby trails, giving the area a quiet, outdoors-forward rhythm.
