Live
Tucked away in the southeast corner of Kansas, Pittsburg is a thriving community of hardworking people. This forward-moving city is the place to put down your roots.
Our City. Our Stories.
Why Pittsburg?
In Pittsburg we have the small town feel and family atmosphere with all the amenities as a large city, without all the busy hustle and bustle. Our city offers the very best in education, healthcare, sightseeing, outdoor activities, housing, work and more. We are home to friendly faces and welcoming people who are eager to see Pittsburg grow. Our community is focused on investing in the future with our forward-thinking attitude. We are moving forward together.
Investing in Success
Not only will you find a strong community in Pittsburg, but a place to build your life and to grow your family. We make decisions based on what is best for the people who have decided to plant their lives here, and they have repeatedly shown financial commitment to improvement. The citizens of Pittsburg have approved sales taxes for economic development, capital outlay, auditorium operations, and street improvements. In 2013, voters approved a sales tax to better fund public safety through the Police and Fire Departments, as well as a $31M bond package to add storm shelters and other improvements to school facilities. In 2021 voters passed a $16.5M bond package to renovate 72,000 square feet of the original 1921 high school, which now serves as the middle school. Approving these taxes has allowed the City to create a better, safer environment for everyone and shows the community’s willingness to take responsibility for its future.
Resident Well-Being
Pittsburg is proud to be the regional hub for healthcare in Southeast Kansas. Pittsburg is able to offer quality healthcare to all residents. We care deeply about the well-being of our neighbors and we make sure that the best care is available and accessible to everyone.
Educating our Youth
Education in Pittsburg is top-notch. We know the things we teach young people today will affect our city for years to come. Great education is a priority to us because it is a priority to the families that live here. The community of Pittsburg puts people first by putting time and money into things that matter. We are a small town with high standards and we are constantly pushing our city forward with growth and improvement.
Things to do
There’s always something going on in Pittsburg, from shows and concerts, to fitness and festivals. You can’t beat the local food and shopping in Pittsburg. Whatever cuisine you’re craving, you can find it in Pittsburg. The City of Pittsburg Parks & Recreation Department hosts classes, camps and activities all year long. Southeast Kansas has a rich history that emanates today in our everyday lives. Because of this, there’s a lot to learn and a lot to see. We make it easy to get involved with the community in Pittsburg by providing activities for everyone, no matter your interests.
Local Economy
The City of Pittsburg has a flourishing local economy and is the place to plant your roots and grow alongside the city. The cost of living in Pittsburg is well below the national and state average. We believe by balancing the cost of living and job growth, our city gives a quality of life that is unmatched.
