What are your thoughts on Pittsburgh, PA, specifically Oakland

[Joe M.]

Hi everyone,

What are your thoughts in Oakland, PA?  Im trying to do my due diligence on the area.

The high taxes of Allegheny, as well as year after year population decline worry me.  However with CMU and Pitt being right there, I look at this as a huge plus.  

What have your experiences been with this area?  Also, any recommendations for property management?

Thanks for any insights or things to consider.
