About Kittanning

Kittanning sits along the banks of the Allegheny River, about 45 minutes northeast of Pittsburgh. As the county seat of Armstrong County, it offers the feel of a classic Western Pennsylvania river town, complete with historic brick buildings, tree-lined residential streets, and a quiet community of around 4,000 people. Living here means having daily essentials, local schools, and county services close by, with Route 28 providing a straightforward drive into the Pittsburgh metro area for work or weekend trips.

Kittanning Citizen's Bridge

Much of the community action centers on Riverfront Park, a scenic green space along the water that hosts summer concerts, seasonal festivals, farmers markets, and fireworks. Downtown Market Street is filled with local diners, small shops, and neighborhood businesses leading up to the historic bridge crossing the river. With easy access to river boating, nearby walking trails, and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, Kittanning is a comfortable and scenic place to put down roots.
