But I grew up in Pleasant Hills, so I know Jefferson Boro well. Two of my sisters live out in Norwin (past Irwin) but they don't post on DU, they're more the Facebook-type.

The Northside is a different vibe from the suburbs, and I really like it even though my area in Observatory Hill has a suburb-y feel to it. I haven't seen the new expressway that cuts through the South Hills yet, but I hope to take a drive down there sometime this summer.
