Public schools are well maintained and provide a safe, progressive learning environment for our children.
Elizabeth Township is a growing, residential community. Elizabeth Township is located in the southeastern section of Allegheny County, on the Western Boundary of Westmoreland County. The Youghiogheny River, which runs along the Township’s Eastern Boundary, provides the backdrop for a hiking/biking trail that extends North to Pittsburgh and South to Ohiopyle. The river and the trail combine to give Elizabeth Township one of the longest, most scenic natural recreation areas in Western Pennsylvania.
