Cranberry, PA Homes for Sale

Cranberry,  PA homes for sale became quite attractive to those who work in and around Pittsburgh after the 1989  opening of Interstate 279, shaving as much as 40 minutes from the  time it took to travel from Cranberry to the prime Allegheny  County real estate and  business hub that is Pittsburgh.

Growth  hasn't really stopped since then. For example, Cranberry's population  was just 1,045 in 1950, growing to 14,816 by 1990. But the opening of  I-289 has caused a veritable explosion in the number of people who  have purchased Cranberry, PA real estate: the population almost  doubled in just 20 years to about 28,000 today.

Homes for Sale in Cranberry, PA

Cranberry  residents had a long slog into Pittsburgh prior to 1989. The  Pittsburgh-Erie Expressway (Interstate 79) gave owners of Cranberry, PA real estate quick  access to the west and south of Pittsburgh, as well as to the greater  Pittsburgh area. But getting to downtown Pittsburgh? That was an  entirely different matter, requiring Cranberry residents to take --  as the most direct route -- Route 19 and McKnight Road or, as a more  roundabout way, Interstate 79 and Parkway West. Still, commuters were  likely to hit major congestion going either too or from downtown and  so Cranberry remained relatively small -- until I-279 opened.
