Traffic here is gloriously wonderful compared to other cities. It gets congested around rush hour but it’s tolerable. Most traffic is caused by construction more than volume or lack of thruways.

Tons of grocery stores. If you go during a Steelers game, you’ll be one of a few souls shopping. We have Aldi, TJ, WF, Giant has Giant Eagle and Market District and Shop N Save. No Wegmans, Safeway, Kroger, Harris Teeter. Giant Eagle has a monopoly here.

Aldi, tj, wf, giant eagle, community, and shop & save are basically the east end & bloomfield/lawrenceville. one's grocery store choices drop as soon as one is no longer between the rivers.

and to confirm giant does not own giant eagle.
