Pittsburgh has emerged as one of the best job markets in the country. But that doesn't mean finding work will be easy. You have to be willing to network aggressively.

My dh could also get a transfer assuming a position comes up. That would be our first choice of course to go with a job.

That would be ideal. Your dh could network through his place of employment and help you find work. Pittsburgh is a great market for a trailing spouse seeking work.

Gas and Oil Industry growing. Health Care Industry growing. Higher Education institutions getting stronger.
And there's always the spin-off from these industries.
