About Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh is a city full of adventure.

The city is also known for its "Only in Pittsburgh" experiences and its unique and vibrant 90 neighborhoods that create the perfect places to live, hang out and explore.

The Steel City’s accent is a thing to behold, and you’ll find people living in Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania speaking Pittsburghese. You may hear the term “yinzer,” which is the equivalent to the word “y’all” and used to address two or more people as a second-person plural pronoun. If you’re moving to the ‘Burgh, learning Pittsburghese will help!
