The Pittsburgh-area growing season hits Mount Oliver on the typical western PA calendar — early-April green-up, mid-October first frost — but the dense tree canopy in older neighborhoods means fall leaf work runs in waves through November.

Small dense urban borough with early 20th century housing stock. Rowhouses and attached construction on small lots. The borough is one of the smallest municipalities in Allegheny County. Strong community identity in a tight-knit, historically diverse neighborhood.

Local Conditions

What to Know About Mount Oliver

Soil

Urban conditions; construction history from early 20th century development has left variable soil profiles. Steep hillside lots have thin topsoil over clay or shale on exposed slopes. Flat sections near commercial streets have better urban soil conditions.

Turf

Fescue is the practical choice on Mount Oliver's steep hillside lots. The small independent borough surrounded by Pittsburgh has significant terrain challenges. Where turf exists, fescue provides shade and slope tolerance that bluegrass cannot offer in this setting.

Climate

Urban Pittsburgh climate with hillside character. Elevated position provides some wind exposure and slightly cooler temperatures than valley neighborhoods. First frost mid to late October; last frost mid-April. Similar to Mount Washington and Knoxville climate character.

My yard was a mess. Within two weeks of regular cuts and a cleanup, they turned it around completely. Looks amazing.
