West Hills, PA

West Hills is organized through East Franklin Township's institutions. West Hills Primary and West Hills Intermediate cover kindergarten through sixth grade, Armstrong Junior-Senior High continues through grade 12, and Lenape Area Vocational Technical School provides the county's vocational track. Armstrong County Memorial Hospital is in the township, and West Hills Community Park offers a pavilion, kitchen rentals, and a 2026 frisbee-golf program. Those sites supply the clearest centers for a place without a separate borough square. Together, these institutions give West Hills its daily shape and practical center.

The census-designated place had 1,228 residents in 2020 and sits within Armstrong County's East Franklin Township. Roads, zoning, water, wastewater, and emergency services are handled through the township, so the local geography is institutional as much as residential. The school sequence, hospital, and park connect West Hills to the wider Armstrong school district and township network. This is a small named place with practical routines spread among shared facilities and no municipal downtown.
