Comedian Dennis Miller grew up in Castle Shannon. His acerbic stand-up act led to a television series, and among his most well known quotes is, "I rant, therefore I am."
Not far from the larger town of Mt. Lebanon and the major cultural enclave of Pittsburgh, Castle Shannon is a pleasant community of just over 8,300 residents that has ample public transportation and green space within its borders--no ranting necessary. Settled in 1786 by families seeking agricultural land and timber, the most impressive farm was named Castle Shanahan. The name eventually mutated to Castle Shannon. In 1872, the Pittsburgh and Castle Shannon Railroad line stimulated the town's growth by providing good transportation into Pittsburgh. View Castle Shannon City Guide
