Mount Pleasant delivers small-town ease with big-time access to the Laurel Highlands. Set in Westmoreland County, the borough puts you within an easy drive of Greensburg, Latrobe, and the opportunities of Pittsburgh. Historic storefronts along Main Street house local eateries, cafés, and services, while tree-lined neighborhoods and community parks give residents room to breathe.
Families appreciate the strong local schools anchored by the Mount Pleasant Area School District, which offers a range of academics, arts, and athletics. Everyday needs are covered close to home, including quality care at Excela Health Frick Hospital. Outdoor time is easy to come by: nearby Mammoth Park features miles of trails, fishing, picnic groves, and seasonal activities, and the wider Laurel Highlands invites weekend adventures on scenic byways, ski slopes, and rivers.
Community spirit shows up year-round, from youth sports and library programs to the Mount Pleasant Glass & Ethnic Festival, where flavors, music, and local craftsmanship take over downtown. Housing options range from classic century homes to newer builds on quiet cul-de-sacs, giving first-time buyers, growing households, and downsizers solid choices. Commuters find reliable routes in every direction, while staying close to farmers markets, independent shops, and regional employers.
