We've only lived in Pittsburgh now for about 2 years... so long enough to know where not to go at night, but not long enough to know what's good or bad. We "accidently" moved into a ghetto when we moved here from Albany.... basically we had visited once or twice, place looked nice so we signed a lease. Well, the scary people were hiding those days! Turned out to be horrible, most of the (huge, 1000 apartment) complex was on federal assistance so partied all day AND all night, since they couldn't work and *gasp* earn money! It was in a really nice borough, it just happened to be a bad area of that really nice borough. I even called the police station before moving there and they wouldn't tell me anything -- shoulda been my first clue!
