==History==
Crafton is named after James S. Craft, a frontier attorney who was granted land near the "forks of the Ohio" in present-day Oakland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Crafton Historical Society )〕 The sale of this land part financed purchases of land in the Chartiers valley. Charles Craft, son of James, divided the land into lots on the death of his father and submitted it to the Allegheny County Courthouse as Crafton. Following a period of building, the borough was incorporated in 1882, with Charles as the first burgess.
Crafton was linked to downtown Pittsburgh by trolley in 1896. The service ended when the Fort Pitt Bridge was built without trolley tracks.
Crafton was rated as being the best place to raise children in Pennsylvania, according to ''Bloomberg Businessweek's'' "Best Places to Raise Your Kids 2011".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Best Places to Raise Your Kids 2011 )〕
