Monroeville is a family friendly suburban area full of fun, shopping, and eating! The public schools are full of educated teachers and administrators who want to see their students succeed. There are apartments and houses available to fit your budget and the neighborhood and if looking for a job there are staffing agencies that can help with that. Although the nightlife is not exciting, the city is about 15 minutes away and I'm sure there's something you could find that'll fit your interest.

Monroeville, PA is a great place to live and everything is close by! In Monroeville, there are many restaurants whether you'd like fast food or to dine in and if you're more into cooking you can find what you're looking for in one of the many grocery stores/markets. There is also an array of shopping from the Monroeville Mall to plazas or car lots! Though the nightlife isn't as impressive as many may hoped, the City of Pittsburgh is full of fun things to do and is about 15 minutes away!
My favorite part about Monroeville is how the members of the community interact with one another. They're all extremely supportive and make the effort to take care of others. If you have an issue getting to a doctor's appointment, chances are that if you ask a neighbor, they're willing to lend a hand. During the holidays, the neighbors often participate in gift exchanges and also participate in school fundraisers. The only thing that would make Monroeville better is an increase in diversity.
