For My Family on the South Side

Choosing to raise a family on the South Side means…

  • Embracing diversity.
  • Walking to parks, stores, restaurants, swimming pools, and other places instead of driving!
  • Your children attending Phillips Elementary, a premier public school in Pittsburgh.
  • Living near regional amenities, like museums, the Zoo, the National Aviary, Carnegie Science Center, the ballparks, and Kennywood!
  • Having caring neighbors (many, seniors) who “watch out” for your family.
  • The security of professional police, fire, and emergency personnel nearby.
  • Highly regarded daycare facilities close to home.
  • Access to the city’s premier emergency medical facilities just moments away.
