Cranberry Township Reviews

I like that there is always something to do! My friends or family and I could shop, go to the movies, or get something to eat without driving too far. Even though there are many activities available, the traffic in the afternoon and evening can be discouraging. Sometimes a five minute drive to the bank becomes a twenty minute one during rush hour.
Review Cranberry Township
Cranberry is a lovely town that is the perfect median between country and city. It's a 35 minute drive to the city yet I can still drive 5 minutes and find local farms a country. Only downside is that we have become popular with the recent building of Westinghouse Headquarters built within the town so traffic can be annoying sometimes. Other than that it's a lovely town with lots to do and eat!
This bustling suburb has everything! When I lived there, I was able to walk to Shop n Save. The school district that I went to was rather large, so you weren't able to get one on one help, but the teachers were nice.
