    This is a wonderful community to live in! The streets are walk-able and everyone is so friendly. I have never felt unsafe or out of place. The town is very liberal and accepting, but there is not that much diversity. Public transportation is wonderful considering the small size of the city. Getting to downtown Pittsburgh is very very easy as there are buses frequently as well as the trolley.

    I have lived in Mount Lebanon for all my seventeen years of living, so naturally, I am predisposed to liking it. Regardless, the education and emphasis on community are the outlying aspects that truly exemplify the beauty of this neighborhood. For example, Mount Lebanon's schools are recognized nationally for their excellence. In terms of community, families and friends are often found in the same, popular spots in Mount Lebanon. The downtown is known as "uptown", and it is a center for small businesses, law enforcement, and schools. People come together for public events like art festivals and light up nights. Perhaps most important to Mount Lebanon is the demeanor of the people: warm, friendly, and thankful for the safe community in which they live.
    Mount Lebanon is a wonderful place to live, especially if you have a family and kids. The school district is ranked the best in the entire county, and the area is very kid and people friendly, and all of the people are very nice. There's an uptown where all the shops are located, from restaurants to cafes to tailors and to real estates. They have everything you can possibly need in a community. It is a very active community, so you can always find something to get involve in!
