Why McKees Rocks

Big-city access.
Small-town affordability.
A community on the way up.

McKees Rocks and Stowe Township give you something that’s getting harder to find
in the Pittsburgh region: a real, walkable, historic neighborhood you can actually
afford — five minutes from downtown.

Location, Location, Location

5 minutes to downtown Pittsburgh, 15 minutes to the airport, with three bus lines and a riverfront trail.

Affordability

Home prices and rents well below the regional average, in a market that’s just starting to climb.

A Real Neighborhood

Dense, walkable streets; front porches; corner shops; and 13,000 neighbors from every walk of life.

Culture at Your Doorstep

The Roxian Theatre, the Parkway movie house, the Father Ryan Arts Center, independent coffee, and a growing restaurant scene.

Momentum

New apartments, renovated homes, a revitalized Main Street, and millions in new investment — with more on the way.

Support That Matters

A CDC and a network of partners working every day to make sure growth includes the people already here.

Growth That Includes You

The McKees Rocks CDC’s work is rooted in a simple commitment: the residents who live here now should be able to stay and benefit as the community grows. From homeowner and renter support to youth programs and resident-led task forces, the goal is shared prosperity — not displacement.
