For some reason, at least 30 streets in Dormont were renamed in 1909 when the borough was incorporated. Since that time, the borough has been known as "a town without streets" since the majority of roads in the area are designated as "avenues" and there's not a single roadway designated as a "street."
After a population explosion that lasted from 1910 to 1930, Dormont has had a relatively stable population. In fact, the area has experienced a steady decline since the 1950s. Even with this being the case, though, the population density remains exceptionally high, and people still flock to call the area home. Whether this is because of the historically low crime rate or the beauty of the town, Dormont remains the most packed municipality in all of Allegheny County. See more
