    Living In Greensburg, Pennsylvania has been a pleasant experience for me overall. There is such an advantage of having a public school system and having more jobs in the area. There is more diversity in the in the area and every neighborhood is very friendly and there whenever you need a hand. Houses in in the area are usually affordable and many do not have a problem financially in the area. Growing up in this is area was wonderful place to learn and help build stronger relationships with those around me.

    I've been living in Greensburg for sixteen years. It's a nice town with plenty of things to do and plenty of places to eat. We even have Family Video which is AN ACTUAL BUILDING where you can go to RENT MOVIES! Crazy. It's a great college town being that there are two universities within a ten minute drive of eachother.
    Small town fill with big city services, etc. Public transportation, malls, huge variety of shopping experiences, restaurants both chains and locals and variety. Nice variety of parks and recreation, fishing, boating, biking, hiking, etc.
