Allegheny County residents and visitors experience a unique local atmosphere, enjoying all the "big city" amenities without many of the big city problems. These features blend with a special small town warmth and charm, to give us a quality of life envied throughout the nation. The cost of quality housing in Allegheny County ranks among the most affordable in the nation, based on figures from the U.S. Census Bureau. Our costs are well below the national average, easily beating out cities including Baltimore, Atlanta, Seattle or Chicago.

There are currently more than 800 firms and over 100,000 people involved in the advanced technology industry in the Allegheny County region. The area's corporate, university and health care infrastructure has been the catalyst in spawning our primary high-tech industries which include information technology, biomedical technology, environmental technology and advanced materials and manufacturing.

Allegheny County is home to at least eight Fortune 500 firms including Heinz, USX, USAirways, PPG Industries, General Nutrition Centers, PNC Corporation, Mellon Bank and Alcoa. Newer, high growth companies which have cemented our reputation as a leader in technology ventures include FORE Systems, Medrad, Respironics and AEG.

Allegheny County's generous selection of cultural arts provides a variety of year-round entertainment. The Pittsburgh metro-area ranks in the top ten of the 50 largest metropolitan areas in the nation in terms of cultural facilities per 100,000 population. In fact, the cultural arts in Allegheny County draw bigger audiences than sports events.

The downtown Pittsburgh Cultural District is anchored by the Heinz Hall for the Performing Arts, The Benedum Center, The Byham Theater and the new O'Reilly Theater. These grand venues host such world -class cultural treasures as the Pittsburgh Public Theater, Pittsburgh Ballet Theater, Pittsburgh Opera, Civic Light Opera and the Pittsburgh Symphony.

The Allegheny County Park system, comprised of nine parks and 12,000 acres is a regional treasure enjoyed by more than 11 million visitors annually. The regional parks ring the City of Pittsburgh along the highway route of the orange belt, at a radius of about 15 miles from downtown Pittsburgh. No Allegheny County resident is more than a 20 or 30 minute drive from a county park.
