For other uses, see Brier Hill (disambiguation).

Brier Hill is a neighborhood in Youngstown, Ohio, that was once viewed as the city's "Little Italy."[1] The neighborhood, which was the site of the city's first Italian settlement, stretches along the western edge of Youngstown's lower north side and encircles St. Anthony's Church, an Italian-American Roman Catholic parish.[2] Each year, at the end of August, the Brier Hill Fest attracts thousands of visitors from Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.[2][3][4]
