You have access to the Oakland Corridor buses. You have a short 5 minute walk for the 54: Northside – South Side, or 75: Ellsworth. This gives you a total of 5 buses, and not many other homes can offer that. You have a wide range of places you can go to immediately and to know where you ar going will be a long way in getting around Pittsburgh, and Allegheny County. Considering your school likely gives you a bus pass, you shouldn’t have to worry about the charges, or coming up with cash.
