Testimonials
About Pittsburgh works so well because its concerns are the real life issues and questions that face employees who are transporting their lives. About Pittsburgh helps families find a swimming instructor for their daughter; a pulmonologist for their 5-year-old's asthma; a software company for the continuation of a spouse's career; or a neighborhood and school with all the charm and convenience of their old one.

“The value of our decision was a result of the time we spent our About Pittsburgh guide. She met us early in the morning with a bright smile and genuine interest in what we needed. This was especially significant because she showed awareness and interest in the cultural differences and preferences we might have as African-Americans relocating to the area, versus giving us a cookie cutter tour. About Pittsburgh is an incredibly valuable service that you may not appreciate until you've utilized it. This is my third professional relocation but the first time I have experienced a service like About Pittsburgh.”

“THANK YOU ALL for your wonderful work helping me learn about Pittsburgh ... and most importantly find an awesome new place to live! Johnette was simply a fabulous tour guide ... professional, knowledgeable, fun and a real pleasure to spend the day with. I am very grateful for the service provided to me - without it my search would not have been as enjoyable (or easy). Relocating to a new city and starting a new job can easily be over whelming & stressful ... not for me - thanks to all you!”

“Both [my wife] and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Sarah. She was profoundly knowledgeable about Pittsburgh, established an immediate rapport with us by carefully listening to our questions and instantly responding either with explanations or by re-routing the tour to make sure that we have our answers, and managed to cover multiple geographic areas of Pittsburgh as well as the spectrum of lifestyles in the city and the vicinity. As a person, she was very pleasant and cheerful, which [we] both appreciated. Importantly, Sarah was able to “read us” and based on her “readings,” she not only provided facts but also possible views / interpretations / visions of the relative strengths and weaknesses on many, many aspects of Pittsburgh. That was particularly helpful. Altogether, that was a fantastic experience.”

“Toni was awesome, very helpful. I know it was an abbreviated version of [an orientation] to fit in my schedule, but much appreciated. She did a great job giving me a feel for the neighborhoods [that might work for me.]”
