Cecil Township

Few communities in southwestern Pennsylvania have a history as closely tied to the region’s coal-mining era as Cecil Township. Set among the rolling uplands of the Appalachian Plateau in Washington County, it lies southwest of Pittsburgh, where former industrial landscapes meet expanding suburban development. Coal extraction shaped local employment and settlement for generations, while Southpointe has become a prominent business park and a sign of the township’s changing economy. Cecil Township retains a more open, semi-rural character than many nearby Pittsburgh suburbs, with wooded roads and scattered neighborhoods across its broad municipal area.
