Pittsburgh, PA Apartments for Rent

Pittsburgh offers apartments for rent throughout distinctive neighborhoods, from Downtown with its iconic skyline to established areas like Shadyside and Squirrel Hill. With 446 bridges spanning its three rivers, Pittsburgh has evolved beyond its industrial roots to become a center for healthcare, education, and technology, anchored by major institutions like UPMC and the University of Pittsburgh, along with the developing innovation district in Bakery Square.

Apartment hunters will find Pittsburgh's rental market approachable, with average one-bedroom rents around $1,338. Each neighborhood presents different advantages - Oakland sits near major universities, while the South Side features East Carson Street's entertainment district, and the North Side combines historic architecture with attractions like PNC Park and the Andy Warhol Museum. The city's public transit system, green spaces including the 664-acre Frick Park, and cultural institutions complement a renowned dining scene that includes local specialties like pierogies and sandwiches topped with french fries.
