My Opinion is...:Growing up in Pittsburgh in the 70's and 80's was good.. I lived in Homewood. We had beautiful homes,and neighbhoroods. My experiences growing up were good. Everyone looked out for one another. I have thought about leaving Pittsburgh but not sure if it would be any better someplace else.. I grew up with the saying "The grass is not greener on the other side." Although things have changed dramatically in that area I still like living in Pittsburgh. I would only move if a differnt job opportunity comes available.
