New construction is going to be like Mars, cranberry, Wexford. But they won’t be gated

Reassessing every year (or close to it) is the best available approach

Eggs N’at in Moon is pretty dope. You might have to get up earlier though, they close at 2

That's not really a thing in Pittsburgh. There may be some in Cranberry, which is an exurb in Butler county, assuming you're okay with a longer commute. My husband worked with a guy who lived in Cranberry and worked in Oakland. He said that at rush hour it was around 45-60 minutes each way. Which is why he moved closer the first chance he got.

From a tax policy perspective it generally makes the property tax system more progressive instead of regressive. In practice it’s a disincentive against buying a recently renovated house and incentives buying fixer upper and live there forever. It is an inefficient tax policy from the perspective that moving closer to a better job has economic benefits and renovating a house before putting it in the market generates economic activity. As far as I know nobody has a perfect formula

I hope that no one you know ever has a stroke, but if they do, I sure hope you don't neglect to use that charming nickname for them.

If you've got a sump running 24/7, you need to investigate that. Even if the water is being removed, that kind of flow is NOT good. The sump should only be used for keeping shit dry, not "every time it rains" and certainly not all winter long.

Yeah, OP, you’re not going to find what you’re looking for. Inside the city a close comparable might be https://summersetatfrickpark.com and you could find some new construction communities waaaay outside the city.

Love the brutality of your take on Chicago with the soy beans and weather.
I like Chicago, but it has numerous downsides like you mentioned. Also the 90s were cool.

Imagine the vindication for everyone who wisely ignored the "hurr durr pittsburgh is too cloudy" idiocy and got their solar panels installed before everything went to shit.
Those sub-$25 bills are nice, and it's also cool to not have to care (as much) about rate hikes.

I don't skip the spf unless I plan to stay indoors the entire day. I wouldn't reapply though if I'm only outside for an hour. For reference, I use a retinoid which makes my skin more sensitive to sun damage and also I just want to keep my skin decent in middle age.
Edit to say that I change my sunscreens seasonally. In winter, I'm less concerned about the spf rating and my skin is dryer, so I use moisturizers with spf. In summer I go for 50 SPF with the highest UVA rating I can find and make sure it's water resistant.

Until it becomes more of a place to live than primarily a place to visit, it will be difficult.

It's currently off of Steubenville Pike not far from Central Diner, not far from the car dealerships on Campbells Run..If it moved I don't know where it used to be.

The one on route 8 isn’t far if you live on the east side of the city
