Uptown Pittsburg

When Most people think Pittsburg they think High Crime, Slums, Ghetto Ect.
I invite people to our little City to see that yes there has been a bad Reputation lingering above us for a long time, But Things Change and I would like to believe that Pittsburg has Changed for the good. We have a Nice small Down Town could use a few more shops which I anticipate will be coming with the economy slowly moving up there are a few Great Places to Dine there is a Ice Cream shop and every Thursday the super fun Music and Car Show.
Uptown Is like a previous Unilocaler said more quit Nicer area to come home from all the Hustle and Bussel of our every day Hectic life’s. If you happen to get Hungry or are a foody like me there is a wide array of choices to choose from close to home. The Parks are Nice yet you have to get there super early if you want a picnic area. Parking is MMMMmmmm There could be more with the newly renovated pool at Buchanan Park it gets Crazy Hectic on the weekends.
Over all I love this Community where all your Neighbors say Hello to you when your in the front yard.

Uptown Pittsburg is the «nicer» side of this small city. It’s furthest away from the loud railroad tracks which is nice. Hearing that train whistle late night is not the business; especially when you are trying to sleep. Also, further away from the freeway.
The homes are a little more expensive, newer, and larger (sq. ft. wise). The parks are more family friendly for actual play time. Although it’s «nicer», it doesn’t say much for Pittsburg. What is considered «nicer» is what others would probably call normal. Nothing fancy. There is occasional riffraff and ghetto folks but it’s not as visual as midtown or downtown Pittsburg has come along way from it’s negative stigma. So I’m not so anxious when people ask me where I live. Uptown is primarily a residential area with a small strip mall. It’s also close to more shopping in the city of Antioch which is very convenient.
