Bloomfield

Welcome to Bloomfield, a delightful neighborhood in the heart of Pittsburgh. If you're in search of an apartment that offers the perfect mix of historic charm and urban convenience, Bloomfield is the place for you. With its welcoming atmosphere, diverse community, and abundant local amenities, this neighborhood is a hidden gem.

Why Should You Live in Bloomfield?

The moment you step into Bloomfield, you'll immediately feel its rich heritage. Known affectionately as Pittsburgh's "Little Italy," this neighborhood proudly embraces its Italian roots, offering an experience unlike any other in the city.

Culture & Community

The Italian roots run deep in Bloomfield. You’ll notice it in the bakeries, the local grocery stores, and the restaurants lining the streets. And, did we mention, Little Italy Days? 

Little Italy Days is a very popular, vibrant celebration of Italian culture filled with live music, mouth-watering food vendors, and lively street performances. This annual event draws in crowds eager to indulge in traditional cuisine, experience the rich heritage, and join in the festive atmosphere that truly embodies the spirit of Bloomfield.

It’s not all tradition, though. New faces mix with old ones. Retired couples live next to Pitt medical students. Everyone adds something to the neighborhood’s rhythm, and somehow it all fits. 

Historic Charm

Unlike sterile, modern developments, many residences in Bloomfield are housed within beautifully preserved historic buildings. These charming structures often feature architectural details, from intricate brickwork to stained-glass windows and cozy stoops, that tell a story of Pittsburgh's past.

Prime Location 

Getting downtown is a breeze. You can do it in just minutes and barely break a sweat! The same goes for running to the Strip for groceries or making your way to Oakland for work or class. Whether it’s Pitt, CMU, or UPMC, they’re all conveniently close by. Living in Bloomfield means that everything you need is just a short trip away, so you don’t have to plan your entire day around it.

Liberty Avenue pulls most of the weight for public transit. Buses come often, and they get you where you need to go. Forget hunting for parking spots—most days, you won’t even need a car.

Walkablility

Need milk, coffee, dinner, or a haircut? You can walk to all of it. It’s one of those rare neighborhoods where you can actually live without needing to drive for every little thing. That alone makes life simpler.

Green Living

There are trees everywhere. Real ones that offer shade in the summer and turn gorgeous shades of red and orange in the fall. West Penn Park sits right in the middle of it all with space to breathe. Whether you’re throwing a frisbee, walking a dog, or just sitting on a bench with a sandwich, it’s a good place to hang out for a while.
