I'm not 100% sure, but what about Woodland Road near Chatham or Warwick Terrace near the CMU frat quad?

Yeah around Woodland you have ones in the 2 and 3 million range pretty frequently.

cmu president's house (farnam) is by Warwick terrace; all the houses along that road are enormous and bougie. the neighborhood is also commonly used as a shortcut to campus by students.

Whoever posted this has never been to any section of Fox Chapel, I guess

A.) Not Pittsburgh

B.) Fox Chapel has old mining houses. Seriously, FC thinks it's richer than it is because it has some old money areas. It's maybe the 3rd or 4th richest township in the county.

The $4.4 million house on it is the most expensive house in Pittsburgh.

Beechwood is pretty insanely wealthy if the houses (this one not withstanding) are anything to go by, but idk if it would be the richest. There’s probably parts of Sewickly and Fox Chapel that are wealthier if you consider them the city still

Yes but when people refer to “pittsburgh” they often are not specifically talking about city limits pittsburgh. For example I know people from Sewickly that would still say “im from pittsburgh” if someone asked them.

Only really excusable when talking to people unfamiliar with the area and not so much on a PITTSBURGH sub.

Watch out, I got torn to shreds on one of these threads because I dared to refer to a stat for the greater Pittsburgh region rather than the city limits. r/Pittsburgh doesn’t f*** around

I have no problem with both types stats as long as people are specific and not lazy about it.

As someone from sewickley I say I'm from Pittsburgh when I'm out of state but definitely not when I'm in state

100% suburbs.

Richest neighborhood in Pittsburgh is now downtown. But if we're talking single family low rise neighborhoods, it remains Shadyside and has been that way since the 1930s. Millionaire row down near Chateau and Manchester had the title but it's been reliably Shadyside for almost a century.
