Greensburg-Hempfield with a combined population of 75,000 people, if one contiguous area, would be the second largest populated area in Southwestern Pennsylvania after Pittsburgh. It's a true satellite city in its own means, which is a big reason for its comprehensive nature of amenities.

I believe you are asking how easy it is to find a job (work) in Greensburg. Please correct me if I am mistaken. I'm not very familiar with Greensburg, but I would imagine many people commute to Pittsburgh or the eastern suburbs, such as Monroeville, for work. It is indeed a great place to raise a family, if that was also what you were looking for. The job market in Pittsburgh isn't amazing, but it has trended better than the U.S. as a whole during the past few years.

There are many excellent school systems in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, much closer than Greensboro. Greensboro would be an option if you prefer a smaller city or if you already have a job nearby.

Not so... many stay right there in central Westmoreland.
As the county seat, it employs many. And there's Kennametal and Excela... well, they are the major employers!

Per Wikipedia, "Located southeast of Pittsburgh, Greensburg is a major business, tourism and cultural center in Western Pennsylvania. It is evident as the city's population doubles during work hours. The city ranks seventh in Pennsylvania in terms of daytime growth, behind Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Harrisburg, King of Prussia, Lancaster, and State College. It also ranks 16th in the United States for daytime growth among towns with a resident population between 15,000 to 24,999.[4] In 2007, Greensburg was ranked as one of the "Best Places to Retire" in Pennsylvania by U.S. News & World Report.[5]"

Greensburg, Pennsylvania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In other words, there are more jobs than people in Greensburg. That being said do not move until you have secured employment.

You're right ,a few schools, I met with a good rating,but the cost of housing is very high in those areas.
