What Duquesne does better than anywhere else

Curious what people think. I've been here for 12 years and The unemployment rate is 4.9%, which is about average. You can expect to pay around $725 for rent here. It's a a small town city with about 5,186 people. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Does this match your experience? The weather takes some getting used to. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The city has invested a lot in new development. The weather takes some getting used to. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem decent.

I've been here 8 years and it's improved dramatically in recent years. The thing nobody mentions is cultural scene. It's reasonable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the nightlife is legit. And if you're into running, this place is challenging.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Riverside side vs the Cedar Grove side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
