About Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh is a city full of adventure. If you love a good ball game or the great outdoors such as visiting Point State Park in Pittsburgh's "Golden Triangle" to see the Allegheny River, Monongahela River, and Ohio River converge, then Pittsburgh has you covered! The city is also known for its "Only in Pittsburgh" experiences and its unique and vibrant 90 neighborhoods that create the perfect places to live, hang out and explore.

Also, Pittsburgh is a convenient, affordable place to live and work-with a cost of living 7% lower than the national average.

The Steel City's accent is a thing to behold, and you'll find people living in Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania speaking Pittsburghese. You may hear the term "yinzer," which is the equivalent to the word "y'all" and used to address two or more people as a second-person plural pronoun. If you're moving to the 'Burgh, learning Pittsburghese will help!
