Public service is at the heart of Edgewood Borough’s commitment to community. Our residents enjoy one of the highest levels of public service in the region, thanks to a strong tax base, responsive police force, and a professional, independent government.

Located within minutes of downtown Pittsburgh, both via car and public transit, Edgewood is a welcoming residential community of 0.92 square miles with a population of 3,311. Oakland, home to Pittsburgh’s leading cultural, educational, and medical facilities, is only 10 minutes away.

Edgewood is a community of both modern and classic beauty. Our tree-lined streets are home to a variety of architectural styles, from Arts and Crafts and Victorian to Georgian and Colonial. One of the best preserved communities in the Pittsburgh region, Edgewood offers homebuyers and prospective residents a wide variety of options, everything from starter homes to elegant mansions, from newly built town homes and apartments to large contemporaries and upscale condominiums.

Edgewood’s Public Works, Police, and Volunteer Fire Departments are attentive to the needs of our community, and our close proximity to Pittsburgh’s cultural and employment opportunities makes Edgewood Borough a progressive, family-oriented community second to none, as well as a great place to do business.
