The Everything Neighborhood.

McCandless is the anchor of the North Hills. It offers the perfect trifecta: access to the top-ranked North Allegheny School District, the massive recreational playground of North Park, and the premier retail hub of McCandless Crossing. Unlike the newer suburbs further north, McCandless offers established neighborhoods with mature trees and character.
