Carnegie Mellon University is nestled between Pittsburgh's Oakland and Squirrel Hill neighborhoods, and directly adjacent to one of three major outdoor areas, Schenley Park.
Oakland
Oakland
With three universities, four museums, and several hospitals, Oakland is considered the cultural "second Downtown" of Pittsburgh. Thousands of students, young professionals, and tourists converge on Oakland daily to take part in the Tech-Med renaissance happening here.
Squirrel Hill
Squirrel Hill
The charming and leafy residential area of Squirrel Hill is quiet when compared to the bustle of Central Oakland. Historically affluent, a cluster of indie clothing boutiques, chic décor shops, noodle restaurants, and access to two great parks all contribute to the relaxed pace of the neighborhood.
