Located in western Pennsylvania (a ~6 hour drive inland from the East Coast), Pittsburgh has an economy based on education, technology and health care. Historically, Pittsburgh was a center of manufacturing focused on the production of steel. Recently the city has become well known as one of the "Best Value" and "High Quality of Life" places to live.
The geography of Western Pennsylvania is hilly and lushly green. Bike riding, kayaking, hiking, and fishing are all popular local activities. Cultural experiences ranging from live music to museums to outdoor fairs are widely accessible.
