I moved to Ohio at 17. Lived in Scott Township all my life. I always figured the Robinson area would still have a Pittsburgh, PA address like I did

You could probably write Pittsburgh Pa on the envelope but it's definitely a suburb. Hell, even Bellevue is a suburb

I would hesitate to call Scott Township a suburb that's pretty far out there. I don't think you understand what city limits mean

I live in Upper St Clair and we are technically a Pittsburgh address. And we are definitely a burb.

Most people in Allegheny County write "Pittsburgh" as their address - regardless of where they pay their local taxes to.

The closest point in the city to USC is the city/Dormont border on West Liberty Ave.

The official 15241 zip code is Pittsburgh, not Upper St Clair. Either will get it delivered correctly, but the USC post office is listed as a "Pittsburgh" address.

2211 Lesnett Rd, Pittsburgh, PA 15241

Honestly, it doesn't matter.

Suburbanites calling themselves "Pittsburghers" is technically wrong (you live where you pay local and school taxes), but it isn't hurting anyone.

I do wish people from Fayette and Butler would leave our names out their mouths, though.

I personally don't say I am from Pittsburgh, I generally say that I am from the South Hills because there's USC stigma. And we have lived in Squirrel Hill so we have done city life. My husband is retired Air Force so we have lived lots of places.

I grew up in the city and then moved to the "poor part" of Mt. Lebanon as a teen. My older friends would always dunk on me for being "rich now." I get that stigma.

Scott Township isn't in Pittsburgh, and neither is Robinson.
 
As long as your street address and ZIP code are correct, you could write "Fart Town, PA" on the envelope and it'll get delivered. The mailing address city is meaningless.

Scott township has a goofed up address because some jagoff in the postal service beefed with some other jag in Scott like over a hundred years ago and decreed that we will never have our own zipcode, nor our own post office (but there used to be one beneath the crooked bridge) and our border lines were going to be forever wonky, so our "sense of community" would forever be confused.

You can write that we have a Pittsburgh address, you can write Carnegie, it doesn't matter.

It's currently off of Steubenville Pike not far from Central Diner, not far from the car dealerships on Campbells Run..If it moved I don't know where it used to be.

They rebuilt in the same location and built a second one down 60 going toward Crafton.

Yes to both, and one opened in Collier near the 79 exit a couple of years ago
