Pittsburgh Best Place to Live
Sunday April 29, 2007
According to the latest edition of their Places Rated Almanac, Pittsburgh was rated as the top metropolitan area in which to live. Pittsburgh hasn't seen number one since 1995 so the region is celebrating their latest distinction. Rounding out the top five are 2) San Francisco, 3) Seattle, 4) Portland (Oregon), and 5) Philadelphia.

Having grown up near Pittsburg and now living in California, I could never rate Pittsburg above anywhere in California. Sorry Pittsburg.
youre a moron. at least learn how to spell.
no wonder you like California better.
So how is that $500,000 1 bedroom condo that has decreased in value by 1/3 treating you out there in California?
And a TRUE native of Pittsburgh would know the correct spelling of the city name. I’m guessing that you wouldn’t know an S from a hole in the ground as well!
Pittsburgh’s air quality was just rated the 2nd worst in the nation.
Duh. Check that out before you rank these cities. Nice town, if you can breathe..
Pittsburgh has cleaned up alot in the past few years, and the cost of living is amazing!!! The city has everything you need, except alot of sunshine, but who wants to get skin cancer anyway!
I think Pittsburgh is definately the best place to live.
Pittsburgh, is ranked 3rd, after two cities in which State??? CA. of course.

As a native Pennsylvanian I’m delighted to see the Keystone state repp’n the top 5! As far as MSAs go Philadelphia is the GEM of the NE. I’m impressed by the fact that Philly is ranked # 1 in the alternative transportation department concerning daily work commuting. Also, Philly has a nice urban agriculture movement brewing. But honestly if I could still tolerate big city enivironments I would choose a city in the Pacific Northwest. I’m currently living in Eugene, Oregon and think it deserves a top 5 rating for cities in the 200,000 population and under category. The last comment I would like to make is that I hope these ratings consider each cities “green policies”(implemented and under consideration for future implementation). Northwest cities seem to be more progressive than the rest of the country in the green department. I hope that’s changing!
Actually, Pittsburgh hasn’t seen #1 since 1985, but has been listed among the top 20 most liveable places in every edition of the almanac.
You, are the moron Jamie, you should at least learn how to spell “your”!
Good for Pittsburgh! Nice to see some good news for a change! Everyone please mind your manners. Every action matters so make them count for good. Hope your all content and doing well.
Colin please tell me that you understand that Jamies spelling of “youre” as in you are (shortened to youre) a moron.
Your moron would have alluded to the fact that the moron was HIS, as “your” would denote ownership.
You should really learn to read and write English before you call someone on the incorrect (actually correct) spelling.
Notice that _Philadelphia_ is ranked in the top five. Who did the ranking? Filthy-delphia. Killadelphia. Come on, people. This rating has more holes in it than the streets of our lovely Pittsburgh. (Pittsburg if you’re from California. Picksburg if you’re Black. Whate’er, man.)
Who said Pittsburg is the best to live in? I mean HELLO people, there are more than 100 countries in the world. Who ever rated Pittsburgh as the best to live in he/she has a badddd taste. LOL.
Maybe Ken Crook meant Pittsburg, CA near San Francisco or Pittsburg, Kansas, BOTH spelled without an “h”
