About Bradford

It's a small town with very few businesses and no malls. Wal-Mart Supercenter is where most people go to shop. That's pretty typical of most small towns, so no big surprise there. As far as transportation, there is a bus service that runs from 6AM-5PM during the weekdays and runs just a few hours on the weekends. Fall can be beautiful here, but winters are rough and endless. It also doesn't help that the sidewalks are rarely touched after the snow falls. If you have trouble getting around, you can forget about walking anywhere in Bradford during winter. If you do walk in Bradford (even for a short distance), you'll probably have to walk over giant snow drifts, slide down icy sidewalks or walk part of the way on the street to avoid snow covered sidewalks. Jobs are also scarce here, but it's not impossible to get one. The town does have a university: The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford. The campus is great, and the school is a great value. So, like with any area, there are pros and cons.
