We are looking to relocate to Robinson/Crafton/Greentree area. Looking to rent a 2 bedroom apartment/townhome/house. Any recommendations? We are family of four(two 15 months old kids).
Would like to keep the commute to the minimum. Work is near the intersection of I-79 and Route 60(Steubenville Pike).


Any advice highly appreciated.

Have you looked on Zillow or realtor.com? Basically most houses will be in budget. 2,3 even 4+ bedroom houses will fit within this budget along with most 2 bdrm apts.

Westbury. has a Coraopolis mailing address but is up the hill from Imperial. off the parkway west next exit after the exit to weirton and steubenville. up at the top of the hill when one makes a right on Aten. between the 2 hotels. back way to the steubenville pike by the catholic church and school.

Thanks for the replies.
I did not see any houses for rent in Westbury dr when I googled. They were all for sale.
We looked in the Crafton area because the daycare is closer to it but found the area a bit sketchy. Don't want to move beyond Robinson mall since one of us works off Rt 28 and would like to minimize the commute time.

Greentree sounds like the right suburb for you. You may also look in Mt Washington (Duquesne Heights). It’s a city neighborhood that’s nice and has good access to the parkway and Route 28 (Thru the west end)

Have you looked at Terrain apts on Mansfield, they have reasonably priced 2bd units.

Crafton Heights is in the city of Pittsburgh and borders the borough of Crafton. CH has some sketchy streets. Crafton borough is mostly grand old brick homes, but does have apartment buildings and smaller homes. I wouldn't rule either out of your search. Crafton borough tends to be more solidly middle class, while Crafton Heights is more of a mix.

there were town houses and apartments if one drives to the back of the plan. there were when i lived there. would take the steubenville pike to oakand
