Well, It looks like I will be getting promotion in the next few weeks, the only thing is that it will require me to move to the Pittsburg area. Anyone out there know the best place to start looking for a home would be? I also have a 6 and 4 year old so schools are a factor as well. Any help would be appreciated.

I will have a home office, but 4 of my accounts are in the city. I should be within 45 min. of the airport. Otherwise I wouldljust like to know the best areas to live.

Well depends on what kind of money you want to spend. I would stay away from the Shaler and Butler areas, they have a pretty bad drug problem. Fox Chapel would be your more upper class area, very beautiful landscape and homes a pretty solid school ditrict. Then you have Hampton, which has it's good and bad areas, solid school ditrict and also has some nice homes. Shady Side is very nice probably the best so far, shady side academy is a renown school, they have a highschool which is like a college campus just gorgeous own hockey rink, football field, soccer, track, polo. on campus dormitories, the k-8 school is also very nice it was someone's home once a GIANT castle. let me know if you have anymore questions
