What we already know, but needed Google to show others – People like living in Pittsburgh

Well we here at I heart PGH already know that people like living in Pittsburgh. The great parts of Pittsburgh are finally gaining some national attention with Google’s explaination for why they are opening an office in Pittsburgh.
Post-Gazette article: Google coming because local talent likes it here

Of course people like living here and it is just great that quality of life and talent are attracting a major national company to open a facility here. What a great statement for Pittsburgh and hopefully Pittsburgh will continue to attract and cultivate great companies so that more people can come to love PGH!
