The part of greenfield that’s close to Murray av is very convenient for bussing to Oakland. If driving or biking, the commute over the greenfield bridge to get to CMU/pitt is fantastic and very fast.

Can’t speak for the slopes, but greenfield is a lovely place to live and there are a lot of grad students here (although many rent). Quiet, close to suburban-style shopping, and some parts are within easy walking distance of the squirrel hill business district. Also very good access to 376, which can get you a lot of places pretty fast.
