  • Pittsburgh has now catapulted to the top of my favorite cities list. And I never even knew there was anything going on in Pittsburgh. From the landscape to the architecture, the people, and culture, I could certainly see myself visiting Pittsburgh regularly and possibly even living there for an extended period of time.

    Someone once described Pittsburgh as “big enough to matter, small enough to care.” And I really feel like that resonates in my 28 years here and even with this video. It’s got enough going on to find something to do, but small enough that you have such a great community from every background.

It always drives me crazy when people say "there's nothing to do here". There is SO much to do that I would say that it would be difficult to do it all in a year,let alone a day. Maybe it's not all your thing,but it's there. Thank you for recognizing that immediately. Glad you enjoyed our town!

    My husband and I conducted a two-year nationwide search of places to move from Florida. Pittsburgh won. We moved here six months ago and couldn't he happier. We could have moved anywhere. We chose the City of Bridges because it has extreme high quality of life and it's affordable, it's beautiful and friendly, it's progressive and diverse, it's economically strong and has an arts culture second to no other city of its size.

    I’ve lived in Pittsburgh for 15 years, and if I have it my way I’ll be here for the rest of my life. I understand what the gas station attendant meant when he said there’s nothing to do here. It’s not like NY, LA, NOLA etc where it has something special that it’s known for. Pittsburgh is not a place I think of as a great tourist place, but it is an absolutely wonderful place to live. It is homey, down to earth, beautiful, and there are PLENTY of fun and interesting things to do here. I love this city and I love living here.

    I've lived here all my life and it's an absolutely amazing city. Some things (like the night life) can get stale after a while but I've never had a bad time. People who say there's nothing to do just don't care to want to do anything. Pittsburgh is a city where no matter what walk of life you are, you'll find something that interests you.
    You guys seem to really enjoy the culture. If you plan on visiting again I'd highly recommend coming during the Three Rivers Arts Festival. I'd also recommend checking out the Mattress Factory Museum, Andy Warhol Museum, August Wilson Center and Phipps Conservatory.
    If you'd be interested in checking out neighborhoods - Lawrenceville, East Liberty, Squirrel Hill and Regent Square have great places to eat . Also Frick and Schenley Park are absolutely beautiful to walk around in.
    Other random things: Kennywood Park, Gateway Clipper boat ride, Rivers Casino, Pirates game at PNC Park (the view of the city is still stunning to me) and the Carnegie Science Center (mostly for kids but 21+ night is fun!). Sorry for the long post, just glad to see you two enjoyed it so much. It's a very underrated city.

    People that live here complain there’s nothing and meanwhile, they haven’t been anywhere else! I come from upstate NY, farm country, where the recession never left. It has one of the highest welfare rates in the state, and you have people fighting over minimum wage jobs. There’s no public transportation, no Lyft or Uber, I restaurants really except an Applebee’s and, if you feel like driving 20-30 minutes, a Texas Roadhouse.
    I moved to Pittsburgh and was able to find a job immediately. I make more here than I did in NY (Much, much lower taxes!) and I can comfortably live by myself and support myself. There are tons of affordable housing options, and they’re mostly by the bus lines.
    I’m glad you enjoyed Pittsburgh and saw the same positives that I see!
    Oh, and the people here are a million times friendlier also!

      #3 good luck affording a degree in programing python or anything relevant in 2019 or beyond.
      $4 The Democrats rip you of your children when your poor and never give them back no matter how good a man or woman you are. The straightest edge will lose to the corrupt Democrat back stabbers and jagoffs in Pittsburgh PA and any city for that matter.
      #5 If you have a job and are homeless, good luck getting into the shelters, Allegheny County won't let you. Try being #246 on the waiting list for 5 years.
      Yet Allegheny County gets 900k annually from HUD specifically to create housing or Apartments.
      Never fucking happens. No ground is purchased, no mini homes built, nothing modern
      Just Democrats patting them selves in the back at Meat n Potatoes restaurant, in Downtown or some private Meetup, with their gay dem liberal ass licking back stabbing rapist friends.
      And nothing, not a damn thing gets accomplished.
      Like bike Lanes for 3 months out of the year, and freezing your ass off in the fall and winter for 6 months day n night, Because bike Lanes in East coast are more important than heated bus shelters, or ADA accessible sidewalks, or 24/7 accessible day cares for single parents with REAL teachers , social workers, dieticians, that make good salaries instead of poor minimum wage workers getting monthly payments from Allegheny county cheap asses.

    Came Across My feed today and its great to watch someone else enjoy your city. Its like getting a reminder of all of the things that are really great about the area and seeing all of the places you didn't get to visit, reminds me to hit those places again. Thanks for the video man. I know how much work it is to try and vlog on vacation.

    AWESOME VID MY FRIEND!!! As a 'Yinzer' (not sure if u heard that phrase when u were here...we use it rather than calling ourselves 'Pittsburgers'), any tribute given to our wonderful city is VERY much appreciated by just about everyone who call the Steel City their home. (Except for maybe the guy u spoke to at the gas station, ha). Thx so much for showcasing our beautiful city. If there's one thing us locals have it's civic pride, so I know that everyone who watched this vid appreciated it a whole lot. ;-)

      Deeja, as a fellow African American I've heard the racism is pretty bad. Yet I've been there a few times and while I did get a few looks people were a lot friendlier than here in the DC area while I live. What are your thoughts as someone who is from there?

      @@ousamaabdu794 there is rasism everywhere we go but here its not so easy to spot. There are a few people that i have encountered but overall as far as i can tell pittsburghers are mostly good people. But there's a buttwhole in every bunch of apples but that doesnt mean you cancel out the whole bag. Pittsburgh is rich in culture. African Indian Asia Irish Cambodian Spanish and the list goes on. I enjoy exploring different cultures, their customs and food. I dont let the negative affect me and live my best life.

    Yes .. I love my city. Thanks for highlighting that there is lots to do here because there are tons of people like the guy at the gas station that are missing out on life here in Pittsburgh. I don't like how you pointed out a group of black people standing at the bus stop as "Seedy Characters" ... I'll let you think about that

    • @AntonDaniels
      @AntonDaniels  Před 4 lety +8

      They weren’t all black (at the bus stop) and I actually edited out some of the incredibly bad things that they were doing so that I could paint the city in a more positive light. They were seedy because they were participating in seedy activity... and they just so happen to be black. I’ll let you think about that.

    He was right! There is nothing here! The accent is horrible. The average Pittsburgher doesn't travel and if they do they go to similar non multicultural places. We just recently got an influx of hispanic people. The jobs here are and have been locked down and dominated by the Polish, Irish, and Italians. Yep! We're on the Appalachian Mountain range. Many years ago some property was given away bc of the mountainous terrain. In my older age and not having to drive everyday I have come to appreciate my rolling hill bc I can garden better here. The weather hardly ever goes above 80 degrees so that's nice, but we are sunshine challenged here compared to Eastern PA. The view of the Three Rivers is awesome! It is nice that we do not have a high crime level in the suburbs. Pittsburgh does have a good arts district for a city this size. The prior wealthy people of Pittsburgh: The Mellons, The Scaifes, and Carnegie left us some quality venues like the museum and the symphony. As you know coming from MI the weather here will be a real challenge in the winter months. The bridges need to be repaired and the PA Turnpike is on the path to bankruptcy! That rock music rules here whereas in TX we listen to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Pittsburgh used to be one of the friendliest towns. Like all small towns it is barely keeping it's head above water. Now Wexford is a nearby city and it is similar to Dallas, TX, progressive! Most all cities are becoming physically blended bc of the major chains McDonalds, Macys, and Walmart. The gentleman at 9:00 is an awesome artist. Pittsburgh lacks rhythm imho. I disagree with the lady at 9:57. Pittsburgh is not very diverse when it comes to people of color. Notice she mentioned the Polish and Italians "off the top". Blacks came to Whiskey Hollow to work on the railroads and the Italians ran them outta town. It is good to here an outsider say what is beautiful here. Every place has good food. Most all places would be nice if the people were more "honestly" welcoming and not looking at you as a "tourist" with a "tourist credit card". Everywhere you took your camara Blacks were not there out having fun, smh. Quite frankly my dad calls Pittsburgh "the white Atlanta", lol.

      @@AntonDaniels he's telling the truth brotha and he summed it up very well. It's definitely is the "white" Atlanta🤣🤣. I just relocated to Texas and it was the best decision I ever made. It's more multicultural, I see more black individuals in higher positions and it's more opportunity. Sure it may have it's racial stigma that people up north always characterized Texas with. Unless you live in one of those unknown ghost towns, you will not see it in major cities as Pittsburgh. I'm glad you had fun though lol

    I was born and raised in the heart of Pittsburgh - Sq Hill. It is a beautiful city but those changes have happened over the past 10-15 years due to serious development plans. I left for nyc but I still have properties there and visit often. Thanks for the good report. BTW, the "highway" is called the 'parkway'. Pittsburgh Cultural Trust does a lot of great work making sure the arts community is alive and well. I feel that you missed a lot but hopefully there will be a next time.
