About Smithfield

Tucked away in the southwest corner of Pennsylvania, Smithfield is situated about 90 minutes outside of Pittsburgh. Part of Fayette County, only 900 people actually call Smithfield home, creating a small, but charming, village in the rural countryside. The town's largest employer is a small wire producing plant run by Nelson Steel. Many residents of an apartment or home rental in Smithfield choose to make the 72-mile drive into Pittsburgh daily because the job selection and pay scales in the city are much greater than those available locally and in the surrounding region. Uniontown, 15 minutes away, is a pleasant alternative and offers limited resources and companies.

Amidst the rolling hills and lush greenery that covers the area, residents of a Smithfield house or apartment for rent can explore county attractions including Braddock’s Grave, Chalk Hill Farm Machinery Museum, Fallingwater, Fort Necessity National Battlefield, Friendship Hill National Historic Site, Laurel Caverns Geological Park, and Nemacolin Castle. Because of Smithfield’s size, youth leagues and other recreational activities are few and far between. Accordingly, most of the town’s residents can enroll and participate in various activities and events organized in Fairchance, a few miles northeast along Route 119.
