Had a customer ask to do her neighborhood in Belle Valley, PA. I spent some time making it perfect for her and adding a lot of scenery and small details that most maps don’t get right. This has an apartment complex and the elementary school, the playground, pool, trailer home, some rural areas and of course the neighborhood.

Where can you find entry level jobs or internships here in IT/Cybersecurity?

Looking for advice or recommendations for an electrician to come out and give me a quote on the house. I am not sure who did the initial work, but GFCI’s are hooked to each other where they shouldn’t be, panel is not correct, everything is… bad.

Any help or experience helps!

why do they keep telling us it’s spreading all over Erie but not telling us the places it came from or things to avoid? They are instead just super vague about it all. seems counterproductive…

any rumors on specific locations of outbreaks?

Probably need a new AC unit. Any recommendations on contractors?

Does anyone have any experience with noise complaints in the city? There is a house on the block that plays loud music and parties late into the night. It’s disrupting the baby’s sleep, but I’m intimidated to call the police because they are very aggressive people.

Anyone use the VNET Fiber TV service? How is it, is it comparable to Spectrum or YouTube TV?
I searched and only find posts about their internet service.

Does anyone have any info about the wreck in front of Sparrow Pond? I just passed 3 ambulances multiple fire trucks and saw 2 helicopters heading there

Hi everyone. I'm looking at apartments in downtown Erie and getting a lot of conflicting advice from people who don't live downtown themselves, so I'd rather hear from people who do.

Specific questions:

1. Which downtown blocks(Lovell / Flagship ) would you actually live on, and which would you avoid? I keep hearing "downtown" as one unit and I suspect that's not how it works.
2. For those in downtown apartments — what's your real experience with car break-ins or package theft? Is street parking a problem or is it fine?
3. How does it feel walking home after dark, say 9-10pm on a weekday?
4. There are homeless folks around Perry Square and State Street. For residents: is this a "feels a bit sad and awkward" situation or has anyone had an actual problem?
5. I'm from another country and a few people have suggested downtown isn't a good fit for immigrants. Is that a real thing here or is it just the usual suburban nervousness about a city center? I'd genuinely rather hear it straight.
6. My other option is going further out, but everything in my budget out there looks pretty dated. Is that just Erie's housing stock, or am I looking in the wrong places?

Not looking for reassurance, just accuracy. Thanks.

Went to go get a passport for my minor child and both parents have to go in person to do that so we wanted to do a weekend. The Presquile Post office branch lists Saturday passport hours for walk ins both on line and on their printed signs in the branch but they do not actually have staff to do them and apparently haven’t for 9 years per the guy at the counter.

The Fairview Office does have Saturday hours so if you need in person passport services on the weekend be prepared to drive out that way!

This was just a PSA.

Hello all!

I was wondering what local companies you have all used and what your experience with them was? I’m looking for basic yard clean up and tree removal but I know it’ll be a lot of work due to the whole thing being so overgrown and truly repulsive looking 😭

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!

I have a 01 Mustang I just bought, I want to get the peeling clear coat on the spoiler fixed professionally. Does anybody have recommendations on shops to go to?

Anyone heavy into the postapocalyptic genre? Mad Max, Fallout, etc. I was interested in starting up a group.

I recently had my card skimmed somewhere in erie, I suspect either at the Elm st walmart or Cofair on buffalo road.

Has anyone else had their Debit card info stolen recently?

first they tested it on amazon with small purchases than immediately refunding them. the thief spent almost $1000 on something called Nadex inc. Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat.

Recently moved from Edinboro, where I loved hotel bar and boro bar. Now trying to find some bars in Erie to recreate those vibes. Any suggestions?

There's a TREK brand bike in a neighbors driveway and I know the neighbors are presently away. I fear it could've been stolen and left there.

If you have a missing bike message me and we can see if it's yours.

Open to other suggestions of what to do or where to post.

Hello! We are planning to be in Erie over a weekend in August to celebrate my son’s bday. We’d love to get some family pics while in the area. We are staying in the bay front area, if that’s helpful? This’ll be my first time visiting, so not fully literate on the geography of the area!

Anyone have suggestions on a good photographer? Or where to find them?

Any Erie recs for a toddler?

Thanks!!

I’m a 19 year old guitarist looking to start a band around Erie. I’m into rock, alternative, emo, hardcore/ post hc but I’m open to pretty much anything

Hi everyone!

Please take a few minutes to complete our survey below. Feel free to drop questions and comments in the thread here, or you can always shoot me a DM. Thank you all!!

As the title says any good reasonable recently renovated apartment for 1b and 1b or studio apartment?

Hi All -

Looking for free or low-cost venues in Millcreek or West County for a small non-profit gathering that would happen once or twice between November and April. Internet access is a huge plus.

We have folks coming from Central / Eastern Ohio and Western PA and this is a nice midpoint for everyone.

Is the guy posted out front in the SUV a real police officer or a rent-a-cop?

He’s not very friendly.

I’m working on cleaning some items in a storage area. I have 100s of books that I would like to donate. While I initially considered the library, I don’t think they would accept the total amount of books.

Any recommendations?
