Leechburg, PA
Pros: A very nice residential community, with a stable downtown area...
Cons: The economy of the area makes it difficult for the local government to do all of the things that they wish they had the money to do.
This is a good place to raise a family.
General info: One of the only remaining Democratic Party strongholds in Armstrong County...
