Anyone live in Aliquippa?

[98gt]

Well the adress is listed on Howard Hanna as Hopewell, and the satellite view shows it in a "nice" neighborhood, not down by the river. Rhode Island road is the street name. But when I type in the adress with hopewell in it, google maps comes back and says it is Aliquippa. Maybe google is just associating it with Aliquippa? It's right off of Broadhead.

And a few guns and dog is a given.

I used to live by that area until I left for the air force, you will be by the elementary school and down the hill is aliquippa. its a pretty quiet area actually if you ask me

Okay I will chime in.



I actually live in Independence Twp, have Hopewell School District, and a Aliquippa mailing address.

Like was said, there are good parts and bad parts. Don't be afraid of the ghetto yins pussies! LOL :D

F'k quippa is nothing compared to the Phoneix Area.

I live in Hopewell in the neighborhood just across the street from that address. It is a very safe and quiet area with no problems at all. The problems in Aliquippa stay down the hill in that immidiate area.

So, for a 24 year old with minimal bills... looking for a house for the sole intention of playing with my cars. is this an OK house? You can see the house via satellite and whatnot... this is for sure temporary. I am only considering this place cuz I don't want to wait 5-10 years to build credit/get my PE license. I want to play with my cars NOW....Good deal?

Like it was said above, Hopewell has the same zip as Aliquippa. Parts of Center may too? Not sure. But still, I think you'd be ok in that area. Personally, I'd look on the other side of Mill Street ( leads from the expressway up to Brodhead. I know for a fact that there are a lot of nice houses in that direction. Do yourself a favor and take an afternoon and drive all around the area - up and down as many streets as you can - and when you're done you'll know if you like what you see enough to live there. You're a minute off of Brodhead which is a minute from the Expressway, so the location is convenient without being too close to the highway.

Buying a house is exciting. But take your time and give yourself as many options as you can. It's a HUGE decision - if you buy the wrong house at the wrong price you can be absolutely SCREWED when the time comes to sell it and move on.

Good luck!

I live in Center in a plan off of Bunker Hill Rd (Behind the Center Travel Center, right off of 376) but have an Aliquippa mailing address. I wouldn't live in the heart of Aliquippa but if it is one of the outlying towns that share the mailing address it would be fine.

The house I really wanted was sold the day i went and looked at it. it was in Zeli and had a 6 car detached garage. I work in Ellwood city.

[PaxtonShelby]

Aliquippa seems like a haul from Ellwood City?? I'd think there would be houses with nice big garages or plenty of room to build a garage up in that area. With the $$ you'd be saving on gas and the time you'd save you'd have more $ and time to spend on your cars... I'm thinking there are other reasons you're looking in this area, but just figured I'd throw that out there.

[Tony71502]

I wanted something in between Pittsburgh and Ellwood. Never know how long a job will last. Plus I rather enjoy the city. My family lives in South hills. Most of my friends live in the city area, at least the ones I hang out with. Nobody likes coming over to hang out on a Sat or Sunday and then having to drive an hour or more home. I also work saturdays in Oakland.

[PaxtonShelby]

That makes sense. Good luck house hunting. Rates are low now and it is a buyer's market, so it is as good a time as any to give it a go!

[Stangman701]

I'll make you a good deal on this one if you're interested. I bought it about 5 years ago when I was in the same situation as you, young engineer looking for a place to work on my cars, lol. http://www.steelcitystangs.com/forum...ad.php?t=23217 38 Friday Rd. Millvale, PA 15209

Yeah - that looks nice - and that garage....sha-WING!!!!!!!!!

[Tony71502]

That's a bit too far of a drive for me, but yes the garage is nice.
