The Pittsburgh region's residents are generally happy with their quality of life and their prospects for the future, according to a comprehensive survey measuring their perspectives on factors such as the economy, education, health, housing and public safety.

Researchers for the University of Pittsburgh found that more than 95 percent of people living in the 32-county region including and surrounding Pittsburgh rated their overall quality of life as good, very good or excellent, and most plan to continue living here for the foreseeable future, according to the survey by Pitt's University Center for Social and Urban Research.
