There might have been a lot.
But the "a lot" you say is nothing compared to that of those I mentioned.

Yes it did. I can't help it if you were ignorant of this.

There used to be many Miamis around Chicago. In fact Captain William Wells, killed in the massacre and whom Wells St. is named after, was taken by the Miamis as a child and raised by them. He married the daughter of the great Miami sachem Little Turtle and gave him sage advice.

Bad Boys, Scareface (almost the entire movie was filmed in LA), Fast Furios, Vice City? How about something that's still on the "new release" shelf at Blockbuster? ........ The 3 movies I listed are!

Whereas the most famous picture set in Pittsburg is CB DeMille's epic "Unconquered" in which Gary Cooper saves the lovely ankled Paulette Goddard from the clutches of Howard Da Silva as an unscrupulous gun runner and Boris Karloff as a Seneca chiefton. DaSilva wants to bed her and Karloff wants to burn her.

Meanwhile Fort Pitt is beseiged by swarms of Delaware, Shawnee and Senaca but the Scottish infantry led by the Swiss mercenary Bouquet save the day.

Ward Bond and Mike Mazurki lend a hand, evidently John Ford had nothing going at the time.
