The last thing we want is NH to turn into another Bellvue/West View where they bring the ghettos and wiggers in by the bus loads.

People in Squirrel Hill are soooo weird it would def be a personal preferrence of living with weirdos or assholes. I’d chose assholes lol. very true… west view used to be a great place to live… bring in the not so good folk and watch property values decrease. thats why my family got out! ---

> [@SMort38](#): > > there is a bus stop every five feet on mcknight road. compare our bussing system to the south hills’s. busses stop on mcknight road, and with the exception of the 1D/1F, pretty much nowhere else… mass transit runs rampant all over the south hills. i lived in brookline for a year as a kid. i remember how easy it was to get anywhere in the south hills quickly without a car… and how there was 90 minutes between busses at the Millvale Loop in the North Hills. ---

I went to North Allegheny, so I know what everyone is talking about. I’ve known plenty of people who didn’t have a huge income that either lived in a giant house with shitty cars, or drove amazing cars but lived in small houses. They HAD to have some sort of status symbol. It used to annoy me a lot, but I learned to ignore the uppity yuppies. I was the rarity in NA. I had a job and paid for my own car. As far as the area itself goes…ehh. It’s nice and all, but the traffic can get a bit ridiculous. Not to mention the soccer moms in their Escalades doing 65 weaving in and out of traffic. I’m moving out soon, and def. plan on getting out of the North Hills, mainly due to cost and change of pace and scenery. ---

westmoreland county \> \* property values are still reasonable, it’s got lower taxes, nhills type areas with no north hills area attitudes, no ghetto, and now that 22 is finished the comute to pittsburgh isn’t bad. when i build my next home it will be on a couple acres in northhuntingdon or murrysville or something like that. ---
