I’d be very careful where I would live in Pittsburgh. No welfare recipient addresses.

In Cleveland, the T’s are silent when the city is mentioned by name.

People are friendly and down to Earth here. The City has changed, a LOT, since I was young. So has the country as a whole. Interesting trivia: more steel was supposedly made here in the Pittsburgh metro area during World War II than in the entire nations of Germany and Japan.

One thing in Pittsburgh’s favor is that you can find outstanding health care there...just about as good as you’d find in Boston/NYC/Baltimore/San Francisco.

Born and raised in southeast suburban ‘Burgh area, and have no reason or desire to go back. But I’m sure it’s better than NYC.

There’s a reason why it’s the “most affordable” city in the U.S.

Nobody wants to live in a faded city where it rains all the time and the highway system was never built to modern standards because the population began to decline BEFORE the Interstate Highway System was established in the 1950s.

I visited Pittsburgh once, back in 2008. It was nice enough in the daytime. When the sun went down I couldn’t get back to my hotel fast enough.

Here’s a test...

If Pittsburgh is a city no longer reporting its crime stats to the FBI, you don’t want to live there.

“while also leaning into a uniquely quirky, artsy heritage “

Same old same old. Not unique. Woke assholes in all likelihood.

I remember 1985 when Pittsburgh was #1 in the Best Places To Live. The pendulum swings.
