About Canonsburg
Located about 18 miles southwest of Pittsburgh in Washington County, Canonsburg is a friendly, historic borough that makes an easy home base for commuters. Thanks to its spot right along Interstate 79 and Route 19, getting into downtown Pittsburgh or over to the Southpointe business park is a breeze. The town carries a proud industrial heritage, but today it is best known for its quiet residential neighborhoods and strong sense of community.
Day-to-day life here revolves around local traditions and family-friendly amenities. Residents enjoy grabbing sweet treats at the iconic Sarris Candies, spending weekends outdoors at Canonsburg Lake, and sending their kids through the well-regarded Canon-McMillan School District. It is also famous for hosting one of the state's largest Fourth of July parades, where thousands gather each summer to celebrate small-town pride.
