every “city” here is a pit of despair and sorrow. america is like a contiguous mass of hell as described by C.S. Lewis in The Great Divorce. Boring, gray cities filled with angry, violent, rude people and broken public services.

Before the late 2010s, sure.
Now it has too much problems to be considered the best city in America.

>>214603630
Daniel Lurie has solved *every single* one of those problems. the homeless issue will be solved within a few years permanently

even right now the homeless are WAY less visible on SF streets than they were just last year, crime is WAY down.

People know this too because property values are exploding

How is he dealing with the nimby crowd in SF. Also it's funny how San Francisco's mayor is more conservative than Chicago and future NYC mayors

Terrible traffic and public transit isn't reliable.
>>
>>214603753
>How is he dealing with the nimby crowd in SF
it's difficult and it will take time too. The truth is that he's failing but it isn't even his fault, it's the state of california's policies which allow NIMBYism to run rampant and Lurie can't do much about that

it's also just the nature of the SF mayor's position that he has far less power than, say, the mayor of NYC or LA. SF is far smaller, the power that Lurie has is more narrow. Lurie can't stop the people in Oakland acting like idiotic apes, he can't fix the roads, he can't make people in Redwood City build more housing

This is far worse than I could have imagined. The techbro buildup was inevitable though with Carnegie Mellon being there and expanding at huge speeds.

What happens in Pittsburgh? I thought it was a rundown old steel town?
>>
>>214604163
made in abyss is coming back
>>
>>214604163
It semi successfully shifted to a services economy. There are a couple of big hospitals and banks. Two influential research universities. Chemical and Steel Industry still exists but much smaller than it used to be.
>>
>>214604163
there's a huge robotics industry there, a lot of startups, VC funding, stuff like that
>>
>>214604244
There's no such thing as a "successful service economy". Having the whole city be dependent on hospitals, banks, and law offices only benefits a handful of upper class individuals. Everyone else just lives in a slum.

I live in this area.
all of these towns suck ass.

The college towns (missoula, boise, bozeman, etc) are all new construction and have grown really quickly over the last decade. they have literally no soul whatsoever. every single person you meet is a californian transplant or some retired meth addict or drunk.

life in the inland northwest isn't great. it's a lot like florida where you either have a lot of money and just sit on the lake in your boat all day or explore the forests all day or you are really struggling. it's not a place for people who know what they want to do with life

the quality of white people you meet in cities like SF or Boston is literally 100x higher than the white people you meet out here. I'm not joking about this
>>
>>214604312
All first-world countries are dominated by the services sector. NYC and San Francisco have a much higher quality of life than industrial cities like Dayton and Bessemer, Alabama.

Not trying to crap on your dreams, but don't work for Xanterra dude. I know a lot of people that worked for them; they underpay you, treat you like shit, and screw you over at every opportunity. Considering you're an HVAC chad (I am, too. What a coincidence), I'd just get a job in construction in Bozeman or Jackson Hole and spend as much time outdoors as possible. Jackson Hole is way more expensive, and housing is very limited, but you're sandwiched between Teton and Yellowstone.

also, in case it's not obvious, the biggest reason that job was interesting to me is because:

2) you live with a bunch of granola muncher sex demon hippies in their early 20s

I honestly could not give less of a fuck about the pay if those two assumptions are even remotely close to being true

If you’re in the services industry, you siphon off those two aforementioned sectors so your country doesn’t have to deal with their drawbacks. Even countries that are known for manufacturing like China and Vietnam have services as the largest sector.

I’ve lived in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, New York, and Washington full-time and I’ve spent at least a month in pretty much all of the major cities. Pittsburgh was actually my favorite one by far. Yes, the weather is dog shit. Yes, the food is slop. Yes, the people are kind of fat and low brow sportsball cucks. But you know what? Pittsburgh has one thing no other city in America has right now:…normalcy. Pittsburgh is just fucking normal. The guys are normal, the girls are normal, the housing is normal, the job market is normal, the nightlife is normal. It’s just overall normal, which is decent, which is good. There are other cities that have this or that thing about it which is better than that respective thing is in Pittsburgh but every other city is in some way a fucking dystopia as well. It doesn’t matter if you’re talking about Detroit or Boston. They all suck for some reason or another. Not Pittsburgh. There is nothing about Pittsburgh that will make you fucking miserable. And that’s why it’s good.
>>
>>214605757
St. Pete/Tampa is actually pretty good but it’s also kinda trashy and weird.
>>
>>214605232
Mostly, yes. The only American cities that actually aren’t physically walkable are new cities in the South and West in places cities shouldn’t even fucking be, like the damn Mojave desert. The rest are all either walkable but expensive or filled with brown people. So white dipshits move out to the exurbs to escape the prices or browns or both and go “reee I can’t walk around my little neighborhood off the highway an hour from the city center that only exists to be precisely not the city”. Shit is retarded. America being unwalkable is such a BS meme.
>>
>>214605196
Nah. All the whites have now become trust fund kids LARPing as tradesmen or artists, rich cunts, and leftist cunts, and that general strain of white urban cosmopolitanism that is just so annoying while the city at large is dominated by foreigners and brown people now. Couple that with the absurd prices and New York sucks now.
>>
>>214604821
This is complete bullshit. Pennsylvania alone had probably 20 cities that are highly walkable. Nobody will live in most of them. Know why? They’ve all been abandoned to blacks or immigrants.

It’s true. There’s a handful cities Reddit*rs have no experience with but are obsessed with recommending to every “hi R*ddit leftist cunt here looking for a new city”. They’re New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Denver, and Minneapolis. Over and over again. Check out the samegrassbutgreener sub. It’s the same shit as infinitum.

Pennsylvanians will tell you too that their cities have been flooded by R*dditors. Suddenly ever Reddit*r is coincidentally a Philadelphia Eagles or Phillies fan.

>>214603830
Carnegie Mellon has not so much to do with it. It’s because after their parents’ favorite hives of San Francisco and Washington became intolerably expensive, their millenial kids went in search of cheaper and still walkable cities with quaint old buildings and coffee shops. That’s why R*ddit likes it. But the tech bros showed up because Pittsburgh became a popular hub for training AI and other tech that worked with industrial or logistical products, mostly because of the history. The choice was another rust belt city, which they all suck, Philly, which is infested with black Muslims, or Pittsburgh so the choice was easy. The natural gas boom also played a role.

Nobody lives downtown. I checked the census data a couple days ago, and the entire downtown had a population of just 4000. It may look like a piece of manhattan, but It's just offices that are now mostly vacant after covid. Most of the suburbs are absolutely decrepit looking. What exactly makes Pittsburgh a contender for such a title?
