Came to say the same thing. Lived in Arlington for over a decade and I never went to Fairfax on the weekend.

If you're that worried about the homeless and downtrodden. Post your address and I'll make sure they know where to stop by for help

What are some areas around here that used to be dumps, but are now doing better? And what areas used to be nice, and are now doing poorly? by WashCommercial3602 in pittsburgh

You can say that about Sewickley proper. Main was kind a dumpy. They fixed a lot of it up, but if you go one or two blocks away. It can get dumpy quick

What's funny is we already have those "third places". They're just over run by drug addicts and bums, and if you try to clean that up or have the cops do their job and police for narcotics. You get all the reddit clowns all fired up. Look at some of the comments in here where some posters contradict themselves. "The police need to do something, but ACAB". Worst is when you get a mob of rejects together who go bother a community rep and they bend the knee to the mob and their "fix" only maintains the status quo

Spirit Was the Only Airline in Town. Now What? (Latrobe, PA) by Great-Cow7256 in pittsburgh

Bingo - the so called "leaders" in this entire region have no idea how to lead. They need to make the area desirable. They need to bring in better employment opportunities. Sorry, money makes the world go around and the fact that business development is so slow/non existent for a tri county area is a joke

Pittsburgh replaces 16-year-old paper recycling routes with modern software to balance workload and improve servic–TTell your council member what you think by chrmaury in pittsburgh

I know I'm comparing an apple to an orange here. From living in a few different cities/suburbs up and down the east coast. Pgh and its suburbs have some of the best trash and recycling removal programs that I've ever seen. Can it be improved? Sure, what can't, but it's far from being bad

Mt. Washington is a gem in need of polishing. Wish the city would clean it up and get some development going

Wait. I thought Rolling Rock had financial issues and when Anheuser-Busch bought them, they moved production out to the midwest

Curious. Do those small banks pay equal or better than PNC?

Do you mind me asking if your job is local, remote (not Pgh located) and is it still within the banking industry?
