Oh yea, Pittsburgh is horrible. I used to work for a couple different [realtors](http://www.angieslist.com/real-estate-agents/) in Pittsburgh after I graduated college. The street intersections are such weird angles and It’s just hard to maneuver around the city. I got out of there as soon as I could.
