Thanks. I was looking at Windsor. It's Welfer Street I was referring to.

You're showing promise, but I'm already married to Copanut in SCR's mind.

Seriously, I have never known for Greenfield to have poverty, it's always been a strong lower-middle class area. A vibrant Irish-Catholic area.

The more you walk the hills, the easier they get. If my church lady neighbors can climb hills in Beechview to get to Mass, I'm sure a young couple can manage to get to Hough's.

Okay. I said poverty/working class/middle class. I never said they were welfare recipients. Lots of minimum wage earners sharing apartments. Lots of elderly who have a difficult time surviving on social security. Lots of working single parents on Section 8. But there's also a strong working and middle class and some hipsters and college students who can't afford Squirrel Hill. I'm not saying Greenfield is a bad area. I'm not saying that North Side doesn't have poverty. I'm just saying that I prefer North Side over the two neighborhoods.

Definitely. I wouldn't chose hills like that if I had other options though.

Show me some stats, cuz I've been to Greenfield and Northside a lot lately, and in MHO, Greenfield wins.
