There are many things to do in Cranberry Township. There are golf courses in Cranberry Township and nearby. There are great public parks that include a waterpark, baseball fields, tennis courts, beach volleyball, picnic areas, walking trails, and a disc golf course that is currently under construction. There are many restaurants and eateries, a movie theater, and shopping areas. The only thing I would change is the traffic.

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.
I love the convenience of Cranberry Township to downtown Pittsburgh. It is a great suburb with excellent public schools. Cranberry Township isn't as diverse as the city of Pittsburgh, but it makes up for it in its genuine effort to support and promote the diversity that it has.
