Pittsburgh - Most Livable City
Pittsburgh is once again the Most Livable City, according to the 25th anniversary edition of "The Places Rated Almanac". We surprised the nation in 1985 when we first achieved the title of "Most Livable City", but to repeat 22 years later? Pittsburgh truly is "someplace special".
This is the first time a city has repeated the number one spot.
And, Pittsburgh is the only city to finish in the top 20 every year.
Editors look at various factors such as housing, transportation, jobs, education, climate, crime, health care, recreation and ambience.
For those of us who have lived in the Pittsburgh area all of our lives, this is nothing new. But we're grateful for the good publicity.
