Own a piece of a comeback.
McKees Rocks is one of the most affordable places to buy a home in the Pittsburgh region — and one of the most promising. New construction, renovated historic homes, and new rental options are coming online as the community grows, with a deliberate focus on keeping housing within reach.
What’s Available and What’s Coming
Newly renovated single-family homes.
The CDC and its partners have brought vacant and deteriorated houses back to life as quality, move-in-ready homes — including recent renovations on Woodward Avenue.
New apartments.
New affordable apartment development is headed for McKees Rocks, adding quality rental options to the market.
Pathways to ownership.
Programs and homebuyer cohorts help renters become
owners — sometimes building real equity through shared-ownership models.
Built So You Can Stay
New housing here is designed to strengthen the community, not displace it. The CDC’s housing strategy prioritizes current residents and works to ensure that growth creates opportunity for the people already here.
