Yeah come see our lovely dilapidated and unmaintained buildings and infrastructure. Enjoy breathing that polluted air and drinking that fouled water from underregulated industry. As an addition bonus raw sewage leaks into the rivers whenever it rains too much! Come see the most livable city in America according to people who are unable to properly assess the livability of the city, due to flawed methods and reasoning! You will love our sports teams that have some of the most rabid and demanding fans in the entire world! One good thing is at least the museums and libraries are uncrowded. Best of all we have the National Aviary, that is conveniently located half a mile from an open air drug market!

Yawn, if I had a dollar for every time someone replied with such a banal, generic insult like your statement, instead of something meaningful, I would be richer than Mark Cuban.

I think you might be the pessimistic one here newjack. Either way I don't have time for your NPC comments, so I must bid you farewell. Enjoy your vacuous comments so you and your fellow fratboys can feel like you accomplished something without making any statements of worth. Don't bother replying, I won't read it.

If I had a dollar for every comment of yours I’ve replied to I’d have one dollar, which is a higher number than the amount of parties you’ve been invited to

I present to you the people who are mad over my statement, yet know very little of it can be refuted, especially with the knowledge they possess. Where I live has nothing to do with this, I visit the city on a regular basis. Furthermore I never was "caliming its a shithole", as your poorly constructed sentence you hastily made because you are so desperate for internet clout you have to try dunking on someone with an unpopular opinion.

Here is the message that is lost on all the people with excessive amounts of pride in Pittsburgh, to the point they can't tolerate any objective criticism of their city. This is an ok city to live in when you think about things on a global level, but it certainly has some serious flaws with it, to a point that no thorough and unbiased measurements used to rank cities would ever be able to claim this is America's most livable city. Think objectively about the city as a whole, all of the good and the bad, and you will realize that it needs some work. It does have some wonderful things about it too, like the hills and rivers are cool to look at, and violent crime is less common compared to other major cities. I've wasted enough time here, too many people want to argue, no one wants to have a rational conversation.

There’s criticism and then there’s frothing at the mouth.

I mean… yeah, Pittsburgh needs some work. I think that’s why the people who live here are passionate about it. The people here are rough around the edges, with a lot of character and heart. I’m a Pittsburgh native who’s done a lot of traveling and has lived elsewhere, abroad included. I think why it’s called the one of the most livable cities is because you get a ton of bang for your buck here. Relatively speaking, you get access to a lot of city amenities, jobs and housing at a pretty low cost. Is it perfect? Fuck no. Is it livable? Fuck yeah.

It’s okay if it’s not your cup of tea, and I do think there’s a lot that could and should be improved. I think people are just taking issue with your tone of voice. You sound pretty stuck up, to be perfectly honest. “No one wants to have a rational conversation here” is pretty funny to read, because you can’t take criticism yourself, and you kept going on about how people should accept your criticism on Pittsburgh.

I mean, you pretty much confirmed everything they said.

You don't actually live in the city, you take your opinions of the city mostly from clickbait headlines, and are so self righteous that you think your run of the mill ranting is "objective criticism".
