About Fox Chapel

Fox Chapel is an affluent borough northeast of Pittsburgh, known for wooded streets, large homes, and some of the region's strongest schools. The area was home to Seneca people in the 1750s, long before it became one of Pittsburgh's most exclusive suburbs. Shady Side Academy is located there, and public education is provided by the Fox Chapel Area School District. Fox Chapel feels residential, green, and deliberately residential, with country-club landscapes and city access held in careful balance.
