[edit] History
College Hill has seen a small percentage of growth over the years.[citation needed] The Beaver Falls Coffee and Tea Company opened across the street from the college in 2006 and Hwaet Books and Games opened just north of College Hill near the neighborhood of Morado in 2008. Both businesses are operated by Geneva College alumni.
[edit] Transportation
Pennsylvania Route 18 is the main road through College Hill and provides access to Beaver Falls in the south, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike in the north. Pennsylvania Routes 251 and 551 also pass through the community. Between 1910 and 1985, the College Hill Station provided rail transportation for the residents, but is now abandoned.
