Why Pittsburg?
"Pittsburgh has reinvented itself as a medical, educational, and, more recently, growing tech hub... This has allowed for Pittsburgh to crush it in the viral city rankings. WalletHub has ranked the city as its third-best city in America to live, Money Magazine rated it the top city in the Northeast, Glassdoor rated it the top city for job-seekers, SmartAsset labeled it the second-best city for college graduates, and CNBC rated it the second-best city for millennials." - Business Insider
Salaries in Pittsburgh are competitive with other cities, but because the cost of living is 11 percent lower than average, each paycheck can go further!
