The steel city may have reinvented itself, but with 446 bridges, 302,971 residents, and persistent issues like heavy air and water pollution, Pittsburgh is still no walk in the park. While the city boasts a rich cultural scene and robust medical and education sectors, the bureaucratic headaches around aging infrastructure and the lingering impacts of environmental damage mean Pittsburgh is best suited for those who can handle a dose of grit with their cultural renaissance.
