How is it living in Pittsburgh, PA? How is the Google campus there? Pros?Cons? In process of team matching and down to this location. As someone who has always been on the west coast, not sure what to expect.
The only benefit is having CMU nearby. I wouldn’t recommend the city otherwise.
Why?
Wow! The cheap rent got me really excited loll. And I’m a lady so good to hear there are more guys 😅 Thank you for such thoughtful response, this is is definitely going to help with my team consideration. Is it a pretty safe area?
Are there a lot more guys than girls there? Like Seattle or SF bad?
Also the city is very segregated if that’s not your thing.
👎🏽👎🏽 Ah good to know! That will definitely make me feel weirded out.
there was a controversy recently because they erased all the predominantly Black neighborhoods from the CMU welcome map. Just blank spaces where entire swaths of Pittsburgh history was formed
Pirates' ballpark is beautiful if you're into baseball. Team was finally winning again a few years ago but have fallen on hard times again.
There is a lot of pollution, both water and air, in Pittsburgh. I live there. The cost of living is very low though, I pay attend 800 a month for my decent studio in a good neighborhood.
VLCOL area, great night life and great sports teams. It’s going to grow rapidly within the next decade or so. I’d go there in a heartbeat if I had the chance
