Pittsburgh: A Best City for Young Professionals
July 17th, 2008 categories: Buyers
There are many reasons why Pittsburgh is one of the best places to live for young professionals (or anyone, if you ask me). It has low crime rates, affordable housing options, and look at all of the great activities the city has to offer. But don’t just take my word for it…
Earlier this month, Forbes ranked the country’s 40 biggest metros on economic opportunity for up-and-coming young professionals to gauge which cities are attracting the next generation of top business talent. Pittsburgh came in at #13!
Strong performing companies like Allegheny Technologies, Ansoft and Consol Energy have helped lift Pittsburgh’s post-industrial economy and gave the city a No. 2 ranking in its concentration of top firms from our 400 best big companies and 200 best small companies lists.
Take a look at the Forbes article for an explanation of its methodology and the complete list of city rankings.
