The neighborhood’s industrial roots date back to the late 1800s, when coal and coke production brought workers and their families to the area. The mines closed long ago, but you can still see the town's history in the classic worker housing and quiet street grid. For homebuyers, Bradenville offers an affordable, laid-back setting close to the Derry Area schools and within a short drive of the outdoor recreation in the Laurel Highlands.
