What neighborhood should I do next?

Back in the 60's and 70's, East Liberty was basically a "no go zone". Started turning around in the 80's with demolition of several government subsidized low income housing projects around Penn Circle. Crime started to decrease and gentrification began. Amazing turn around. Enjoy watching your videos when they pop up on my YT feed since I was born and raised in Pittsburgh but left in 1981.

I lived in East Liberty in 2003-2004 and there was some rough streets but it wasn’t too awful. My car did get stolen though 😂 never got it back.

I've lived in East Liberty for a few years and the surrounding areas for the past 30 years. When I lived in E. L. around 2004 it was a little sketchy in some parts/places. There was a large apartment complex right across the street from Penley Place (where I lived). It took up that whole block. From the top of Negley and Penn to the bottom Penn and I forget that street name, but its where Wholefoods now sits. Directly across from Wholefoods was a two apt complex in one. They sat on opposite sides of Penn Ave with an underpass directly over Penn Ave. Those were just a couple of problem places. I think there was an apt building with businesses on the ground floor where Target now stands. And some other places I can't remember the names. Anyway, when I lived out there, I don't remember being afraid, but I was aware of my surroundings. I felt safe for the most part. I had never seen anything bad happening, but hard things on the news especially in Larimar. The closest thing that happened to me was that my brother got robbed at gunpoint one night. Fortunately, he wasn't harmed physically. Since the GENTERFICATION of E. L. I would say it's safer now than before, but it still has some bad apples as all places do. East Liberty is so different now and I could go on and on, but I won't.😁

Is there transportation in that area bus or train. I’m from NYC my adult kids need transportation. Public transportation. Thank you
