Munhall, PA: Who can tell me about neighborhoods? -

My wife and I would like to move within a few miles of downtown Pittsburgh. Every so often, I ll go to Pittsburgh for house hunting. It s a day s drive and I can only stay a couple days at a time. Flying or driving, the total cost to me is not far from a thousand bucks each time. I have a realtor, but for a whole lot of reasons there is only so much she can say when I ask her about neigborhoods. I m interested in looking at some places that are on East 9th St near St. Maximillian Kolbe Catholic Church. From aerial shots and photos I ve seen, the area right around the church looks pretty nice, but I m not so sure about the surrounding area, especially what I think is a little further east. Anyone familar with the area that can tell me a little about the street and immediate neighborhood? I d be really appreciative. Thanks!

munhall is OKwest mifflin, is starting to decline due to schools merging with neighboring Duquesne (bad area)also stay away from McKeesport!!
