Beechwood is pretty insanely wealthy if the houses (this one not withstanding) are anything to go by, but idk if it would be the richest. There’s probably parts of Sewickly and Fox Chapel that are wealthier if you consider them the city still

Yes but when people refer to “pittsburgh” they often are not specifically talking about city limits pittsburgh. For example I know people from Sewickly that would still say “im from pittsburgh” if someone asked them.

Only really excusable when talking to people unfamiliar with the area and not so much on a PITTSBURGH sub.

100% suburbs.

Richest neighborhood in Pittsburgh is now downtown. But if we're talking single family low rise neighborhoods, it remains Shadyside and has been that way since the 1930s. Millionaire row down near Chateau and Manchester had the title but it's been reliably Shadyside for almost a century.
