Sewickley, PA
Sewickley sits along the Ohio River northwest of downtown Pittsburgh, and its historic Village district has preserved a walkable core of Victorian-era commercial buildings and grand riverside homes built during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when wealthy Pittsburgh industrial families began establishing country estates along the river specifically to escape the city's notorious industrial-era smoke and pollution. That legacy of steel and industrial wealth shaped much of Sewickley's early development, with several prominent Pittsburgh business families building substantial estates in the area, a pattern that's left the borough with one of the more architecturally significant collections of late-19th-century residential buildings anywhere in the Pittsburgh region. The Sewickley Heights area, adjacent to the borough itself, has maintained some of the largest and most private residential estates in the entire Pittsburgh metro area, a legacy of that same original industrial-wealth settlement pattern carried forward into the present day. Sewickley's combination of a well-preserved Victorian-era village core, deep roots in Pittsburgh's industrial-wealth history, and continued large-estate development in neighboring Sewickley Heights has made it one of the most historically significant and consistently affluent suburbs anywhere in the greater Pittsburgh metropolitan area.
VS
Cranberry Township, PA
Cranberry Township has grown dramatically since the 1980s and '90s from a largely rural area north of Pittsburgh into one of the fastest-growing and most commercially significant suburbs in the entire region, driven substantially by its position directly along Interstate 79 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike. That highway access has drawn substantial corporate office and retail development to the township, transforming what had been agricultural land into a significant employment center in its own right, rather than a purely residential bedroom community dependent on commuting into downtown Pittsburgh. The township's population has grown so quickly that it's had to continually expand school capacity and municipal services over recent decades, a growth pattern that's made Cranberry Township a frequently cited example of rapid suburban expansion in a broader Pittsburgh region that's otherwise seen relatively slow overall population growth. Cranberry Township's combination of significant highway-driven corporate development and one of the most dramatic sustained growth rates of any Pittsburgh-area suburb has made it one of the more economically significant and rapidly evolving communities anywhere north of the city.
