Best Cities to Move to in America

My 2 favorite cities in the US finished 1 and 2. Let's start with Pittsburgh. I have a lot of family that live about an hour from Pittsburgh. In 2005 my Grandpa took me to see a University of Pittsburgh football game. It was my first time ever going to Pittsburgh, and I was so impressed. The city is absolutely beautiful. It's in a valley with mountainous hills surrounding the entire place, and has three rivers that perfectly section the city into its respective regions. The Steelers, Pirates, and Penguins stadiums are all state of the art. The Pirates stadium specifically has a beautiful view of the entire city and the Susquehanna river. The city has so much going on downtown and it really reminds me of what Buffalo could be. They've really utilized their waterfront properties, having two football stadiums, and all sorts of restaraunts and concert venues along there. Pirates games are unbeatable at about 10 bucks a ticket. The city also has a magnificent arts scene, characterized by the Andy Warhol museum and the Carnegie Science Museum. The Southside of Pittsburgh has about 15 blocks worth of local bussiness of all diferent sorts and is a really cool place to walk around at. Pittsubrgh is also a hub for medicine. The university of Pittsburgh is a a top 5 medical school in the country, and UPMC is a world-renowned orginization of hospitals, especially for transplants. There are also about a dozen colleges right downtown which further stimulates their economy. Pitt, Dusquense, Carnegie Mellon, Robert Morris, the Art Inistitute, Point Park, etc. All of these are located right downtown or with in 5 minutes of the city. Between the sports, arts, education, and beauty of the city its really a magical city.

Which brings me to #2 on Yahoo's list- Buffalo! I was a little shocked to see it on here, but the low housing prices in Buffalo, and low cost of living overall, make it a very desirable place to live. Buffalo seems to get nicer and nicer every day, and I'm really starting to love it. If we would have built UB downtown originally as well as the Bills Stadium I think our city would be on Pittsburgh's level. Those things just drive people to the city and stimulate the downtown economy. However, we've really come on strong and I think we are basically some waterfront development away from really being a world class city again. Really working in our favor is Niagaara Falls. With in the next 30 years, clean, pure water is going to become harder and harder to find, but we won't have to worry about that. Eventually people are going to be relying on Buffalo again, and that could really help us. Either way, I love this city, and I'm glad Yahoo recognized what a great place it is.
