About Jeannette

Westmoreland County’s 11,000-person city of Jeannette is about 40 minutes outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, located 31 miles southeast of the city and access by the I-76. First incorporated in 1889, Jeannette is known as "the glass city" because of the numerous glass plants that were founded in the area. Although the glass industry is no longer thriving in town, Ebara Corporation, an engine manufacturer, runs a large plant in Jeannette and provides local residents of a Jeannette house or apartment for rent with a large employer nearby. With the decline of industry in Jeannette, the city has refocused its growth on residential expansion as it repositions itself as a convenient suburban area with easy access to Pittsburgh.

A regional railroad passes through Jeannette and provides limited services throughout the western half of the state. While not the most convenient in schedule, the train provides an inexpensive and quick alternative to driving, especially at peak rush hour times. Residents of an apartment or home rental in Jeannette can utilize the Mercy Jeannette Memorial Hospital that provides some of the best care in the region and has been consistently ranked amongst the finest in the state. Clarkson Field, in Jeannette, and a variety of parks in nearby Grapeville, offer dozens of recreational options for residents of all ages.
