We hope that you remembered to have your Pittsburgh moving company pack your sneakers, because the Burgh has been named one of the country’s most walked cities.

According to the Alliance for Biking and Walking 2016 benchmark report, Pittsburgh has 11 percent of residents walking to work, making it one the list of the most walkable city. With spring finally here and the weather at just the right temperature, what better way to explore Pittsburgh other than putting on your walking shoes, joining the locals, and wandering wherever your feet decide to take you.

Aside from being named one of the most walkable cities, Pittsburgh movers are proud that 30 percent of the Steel City’s population walks, bikes, or takes public transportation to work. This move towards a more eco-conscious community comes at the hand of Mayor Bill Peduto’s administration; Pittsburgh can thank him for the new bike lanes, increase in bicyclist and pedestrian budget, and the creation of more roads, sidewalks, and bike lanes.

In fact, to date Pittsburgh has one of the highest percentages of sidewalks per square mile of any city, with 36.8 miles of sidewalk for every square mile. With over 2,040 total sidewalk miles, there are plenty of opportunities to explore the city while you your Pittsburgh moving company takes care of all of your unpacking for you. After all, why not take advantage of having moving experts handling your move? Put on your sneakers and get out there!
