About Sharon

Sitting right on the Ohio border in western Pennsylvania, Sharon is a close-knit river town with deep industrial roots and an easygoing pace. Character shines through the older neighborhoods, from classic brick homes to the historic Buhl Mansion, while affordable housing makes it an accessible spot to put down roots. Located right in the Shenango Valley, it also puts you within a comfortable drive of both Pittsburgh and Cleveland.

Downtown is anchored by Penn State Shenango and beloved local favorites, including Daffin's Candies and the original Quaker Steak & Lube. Summertime centers around the water, especially during WaterFire Sharon, when the riverfront fills with food vendors, live music, and floating bonfires. With nearby Buhl Park, a welcoming library, and convenient shopping in neighboring Hermitage, Sharon gives you the comfort of a small community with plenty to do close to home.
