What do all of you think about Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania? I think it is a great city to live in. Very walkable, nice neighborhoods. Brookline has to be one of the nicest and most walkable neighborhoods in the city. About 2 miles from the Downtown area with many schools. Brookline K-8, West Liberty, South Brook, and Carmalt K-8 are in the Brookline region of town. Teenagers in Brookline would go to Brashear High School which is located in Beechview, one neighborhood over from Brookline. The school towers over Mt. Washington which is across Route-51, and you can even see the top 5 stories of the US Steel Tower. Other great parts of the city would be Downtown itself, with its amazing skyline, and walkable streets. Also the Mosty Livable City in the United States. I suggest if anyone is planning on moving to the Pittsburgh region of Pennsylvania, you can find great housing, and great people in Brookine. House prices range from around 70,000 to 150,000 depending on the house. What do you all think about Pittsburgh?
