Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania SperlingViews

I see all these places ranking Pittsburgh as the #1 most livable city, but obviously these people who rank it so high have never actually been here. The economy has been down for decades - even while the rest of the nation was booming in the 90s, Pittsburgh remained down. It is near impossible to find a job. I know this from experience - I have been looking for a job for three years and have not found one, and I have a college education. People in this city are apathetic about almost everything, except for two things - Steelers and beer. Finally, there is an arrogance about Pittsburghers, one you won't find in most other cities. They think they are the best, yet they don't have any real reasons to believe that. Come live in Pittsburgh, by all means. You won't think it's the most livable city after a few years here.
