| Braddock Hills is bordered by the Boroughs of Forest Hills, North Braddock, Edgewood, Swissvale and Wilkensburg. The two main roads of the early days are still the main roads through Braddock Hills, Brinton Road and Braddock Road, extending from Greensburg Pike to Hawkins Avenue (Wilkins Road). The first elementary school was located on the present site of the Braddock Hills Municipal Community Center (formerly Braddock Hills Elementary School). In 1981, a Federal Court order merged four school districts into the now Woodland Hills School District. Braddock Hills Fire Department is manned by dedicated volunteers. The residents are protected by full-time and part-time police officers who patrol the Borough roads.
