Subject: RE: BS: Good places to live and house prices
Here in Pittsburgh, you can get a nice house, in a good neighborhood for $60,000. You can spend less if you don't mind a fixer upper. Jobs are scarce in this town. The steel industry is gone. We were doing all right in the high tech line until the dot com bomb. People here can be clannish, which is a difficulty. The winters aren't much to write home about. But there are folk clubs. There's plenty of Celtic music, and bluegrass. There aren't a lot of Hispanics in Pittsburgh. I don't know why. To the best of my knowledge, no one dislikes them. There just aren't a lot of Hispanics in Pittsburgh.
