Sharpsburg Reviews
Rating 3 out of 5 5 reviews
I have little to no problems with living here. The only issue is the negative looks and talk that I have received for living here because it is not a wealthy neighborhood. I try not to let it get to me.
In my town called Sharpsburg, a suburb of Pittsburgh, Pa., we have two dollar stores with one at each end of town. It is a great asset because they have low prices and are conveniently located. We also have a few family owned restaurants which is a nice break from cooking at home and fast food. There are no big companies, but there is a mall (Waterworks) about two miles away. We have two convenient stores with one being a gas station as well. However, it is our only gas station. There is not much around for entertainment except for quite a few bars, but I do not drink nor to I hang out in any of them. There is also no convenience in major groceries such as produce and a wide selection of meats.
Crime is primarily drug related, can also involve vandalism by wild teenagers, but beyond that, the neighborhood is safe enough to walk around at night.
