How Allegheny County property taxes are calculated

Allegheny County homeowners can better understand their property tax bills by knowing how assessed values, millage rates and payment deadlines determine what they owe. Property tax bills rely on several figures. The calculation begins with a property's assessed value, which is used with a millage rate to determine the tax owed. Homeowners may see more than one millage rate because Allegheny County, municipalities and school districts can each establish their own rates. Those separate taxes contribute to a property's overall tax burden. Allegheny County property tax payment deadlines Payment timing can affect how much a homeowner owes. For Allegheny County real estate taxes, taxpayers received a 2% discount for paying by March 31. The face amount was due April 30.

A record 6,500 runners and walkers took over Pittsburgh streets Nov. 8 for the sold-out EQT Pittsburgh 10 Miler & 10K, turning roads and bridges into a course through the heart of the city. Participants from 33 states and six countries took part in the race, according to a community announcement. The turnout was the largest in the event's history, with the course carrying runners through the North Shore, Strip District and Downtown. Runners crossed three Pittsburgh bridges and got an uncommon view of the city's neighborhoods and riverfront from streets typically occupied by vehicles. Road closures cleared the course for runners Creating that route brought significant traffic changes across Pittsburgh. Road closures generally ran from 6:30 a.m. to noon, although reopening times varied by location. Parking was restricted along the course beginning at 4 a.m. The Andy Warhol Bridge and David McCullough Bridge were among the affected crossings. Both were closed from 6:30 to 11:30 a.m., according to Allegheny County. Music filled the route as competitors raced Traffic disappeared from parts of the course, but the streets were far from quiet. More than 20 DJs, bands and other musical acts performed along the route as part of the event's
