Hated Pittsburgh

If you are not a "Stillers" fan you will NOT fit in here. They are completely obsessed with football and I guess it's understandable, because it's really all they have going for them. The pollution is ridiculous. Traffic is terrible, public transportation is lacking and the geography of the land with the mountains and the rivers makes navigating it virtually impossible. Some areas of the city are are ridden with crime, bank robberies are commonplace and there are shootings every night. The people there love their beer and football, and there is a huge sense of community if that is your thing. I do see how some very specific type of people would like this city. I lived there for two years and was lucky enough to make it out, and I have no urge to ever return.
