Emergency Crime Scene and Biohazard Cleanup in Lincoln, PA

Lincoln is a borough in Allegheny County named in honor of President Abraham Lincoln.

Lincoln was incorporated as a borough on February 6, 1958; before that it was Lincoln Township, and the change in government came after part of the community tried to secede and annex itself to neighboring Liberty Borough.

Lincoln's population was 932 at the 2020 census, less than half its peak of 1,885 residents recorded in 1970.

At the 2000 census Lincoln had 1,218 people living in 482 households.

The borough covers 5.0 square miles - 4.8 square miles of land and 0.2 square miles of water - making it one of the more spacious boroughs in the Pittsburgh suburbs.

Lincoln is bounded by the Youghiogheny River to the east and south and reaches toward the Monongahela River to the west.

Part of the 450-acre Dead Man's Hollow conservation area lies within Lincoln; established in 1996 and managed by the Allegheny Land Trust, it is the largest privately protected area in Allegheny County and was designated a Pennsylvania Wild Plant Sanctuary in 2017.

Dead Man's Hollow preserves the ruins of two 19th-century industries, the Bowman Brickyard and the Union Sewer Pipe Company, which operated from the late 1880s until a fire in 1920.

Lincoln belongs to the South Allegheny School District, which it shares with the boroughs of Liberty, Glassport, and Port Vue.
