Historic Downtown Beaver

Pittsburgh Magazine rated Beaver among the Top 10 Neighborhoods in the region.

Located along the Ohio River just 40 minutes northwest of Pittsburgh, the 2007 Places Rated Almanac "Most Livable US City", and only 20 minutes from the Pittsburgh International Airport, this vibrant small town combines all the beauty and charm of its 200-year history with a thriving 21st-Century energy that provides the best of all worlds in schools, property values, convenience, recreation and health care.

Founded in 1801, Beaver has a rich historical past. From the days when the area was used by the Seneca, Iroquois, Delaware and Mingo Indians, through the establishment of Fort McIntosh in 1778, the beginnings of the country, through its settlement by families and merchants, Beaver has held an important place in this area's history.

Today in Beaver, we are proud of our heritage, which is reflected in the History Museum, tree-lined streets, the wonderful Victorian architecture, our beautiful parks, safe community environment, and the friendly faces of the people who greet you as you travel through this charming 200 year old town.
