First time STR Investor in Pittsburgh, PA -- Need advice!

Hello! I read through some posts, but didn't find anything recent related to what's happening in the Pittsburgh, PA market in terms of short term rentals and investing. I am looking to buy a property for a short term rental, but also to use when I travel to the area for work. My office is in Oakland, but I am open to renting anywhere "the numbers work." I am looking at: Shadyside, Squirrel Hill, Downtown, Southside, Mt. Washington, the Strip District and Oakland. Are these good areas for STR? Are there any areas you would recommend I look at that I did not list? I am familiar with commercial investing so this would be my first residential/STR investment and I want to make sure I am choosing the right location and/or potentially filling a niche that is not common in that area. Any other advice you have about the Pittsburgh market would be helpful!
