City of Pittsburgh Neighborhoods:

The Census Bureau does not associate tract numbers with city neighborhoods, therefore, the tract maps from the Census Bureau will only have tract numbers for the City of Pittsburgh, but no neighborhood boundaries. When you use the Census Bureau's maps, you can locate the neighborhoods by using the tract numbers.

1990 and 2000 Census Tract Numbers for City of Pittsburgh Neighborhoods (alphabetical list). Please note that tract numbers change every census. Ask at the Hillman Library Reference Desk for tract numbers 1980 and earlier.
