Squirrel Hill is located east of Downtown, and is surrounded by Greenfield, Hazelwood, Glen Hazel, Swisshelm Park, Regent Square, Shadyside , Oakland, and Point Breeze.  Squirrel Hill is actually represented by two City Council Districts:  District 5 and District 8.  However, all of what is called "Squirrel Hill South" is in District 5.  Only parts of what is called "Squirrel Hill North" are in District 5.  See the overall Map of Council Districts for the delineation.

This neighborhood is one of Pittsburgh's most popular, with a variety of ethnic restaurants, delis, bakeries, old fashioned grocery stores (which still deliver) and landmark taverns, as well as chic new eateries, trendy boutiques, movie theaters and upscale shops.  Frick and Schenley Parks border Squirrel Hill, offering residents with a wide range of recreational activities.

Homes in Squirrel Hill range from high-rise apartments on Forbes and Murray Avenues to sprawling brick mansions on Fair Oaks.  Whether you're looking for a quaint apartment, or a contemporary house with a garage, you'll find it in Squirrel Hill.

Squirrel Hill's culturally diverse population includes a harmonious mix of families, affluent older homeowners, young singles, and students.
