Moving to Altoona in the next few months and would love to chat with some locals. Have a bunch of questions so please feel free to DM me if you don’t mind sharing your experience with a newcomer. Thank you!

Put your questions out there. Can't hurt.

If you're looking for a place to live. Look for something in our sounds holidaysburg.

Agreed on don't eat the pizza.

But if you like dive bars. Al's is not bad.

The beer scene has improved since I left too.

Lots of good nearby outdoor recreation Canoe creek is a severely underrated state park.

Altoona's so empty that Sheetz built their Technology & Innovation Center in Pittsburgh because they couldn't get young people to move to Altoona at any price.

Lived there for a bit years ago, hoping to visit in the near future.
