Alleghany borders Pittsburgh but does not go into the city.
Man, don't you just LOVE people with the temerity to correct you on things they know nothing about, themselves?
First of all, it's spelled ALLEGHENY County.
Second of all, Pittsburgh is RIGHT SMACK IN THE DAMNED F---KING
CENTER of the County, doesn't "border" it.

Anything else you wanna straighten me out on, Bee?
You need to be straightened out. All of Allegheny County is not in the 18th. It was split up you moron.
From Wikipedia:
"The district is concentrated in the southern suburbs of
Pittsburgh. It is predominantly white, although it contains a diverse range of suburbs. It is drawn in such a way that in some locations, neighborhoods and even streets are split between the 18th and the neighboring
12th and
14th districts. In parts of the eastern portion of the district, one side of the street is in the 12th while the other side is in the 18th. In the west, one side of the street is in the 14th while the other side is in the 18th.
Although there are 35,000 more
[4] Democrats in the district than Republicans, the district has trended increasingly Republican since the mid-1990s; most of the district's state legislators are Republicans. The district is home to many large coal mines and the energy industry is an important employer. The western part of the district contains some rural regions of Washington County, as well as the very wealthy suburbs in the northern part of that county, which tends to be more Republican than the part contained in the neighboring
9th District. The district also contains many of Allegheny County's southern suburbs of Pittsburgh, which range from traditionally wealthy areas such as
Mount Lebanon and
Upper St. Clair to middle-class communities such as
Bethel Park and
Scott Township and working-class labor towns such as
Elizabeth.
The district skews older and has the second-oldest electorate in the state.
[5]
The district winds along the eastern suburbs at the edge of Allegheny County, including most of the large suburban commercial center of
Monroeville, and in western Westmoreland County. Central Westmoreland County, including the city of
Greensburg, is also part of the district. It also contains the rural foothills of the county at the district's eastern end. Westmoreland County has become a major Republican stronghold."
