Forest Hills is about 10 miles outside of Center City Pittsburgh, covering 1.6 square miles. Finding rental housing may not be too challenging; however, you may find that the pricing is higher than average. Many of the residents are both educated and wealthy, and more established than the young professional crowd. This brings a distinct tenor to Forest Hills that, for the right person, could mean a long term rental.

Moving to Forest Hills

You may find that Forest Hills isn't the typical suburb of Pittsburgh, or a typical small town. It is one of the most well educated cities in the United States, with about half holding at least a bachelor's degree. To keep things in context, this compares to the entire United States where only 22 percent hold a bachelor's degree or higher.

This probably explains the higher than average per capita income, which in turn explains the higher than average pricing for rentals in apartment complexes. Rentals homes which might appeal to those looking for this type of rental may be hard to find. Keep this in mind as you begin your search.

While the pricing in Forest Hills is higher than elsewhere around Pittsburgh, you may find that the rules are more liberal when it comes to renters. A number of homes rent to those with pets.

Be ready to deal with more formalized processes, even when working with a private owner. You should expect to be ready to have a credit check and sometimes even a background check done. Of course, you may have to pay an application fee for this before someone decides to accept you.

These formalized processes usually follow definitive paths when it comes to what you'll need to have in order to sign a lease. This probably means that on day one, you'll need to write a check for the first month's rent, last month's rent and then a security deposit.

The other factor that you'll probably want to be ready to assume is that you'll be signing a lease for at least one year. Of course, in some circumstances the lease can be broken, but it will definitely cost you out of pocket.
