Pretty much. There is very little inventory completely updated, unless the house is new.

I actually would think the opposite since a lot of “good inventory” around here is based on schools and not the actual house itself

PP here. Look at the interiors of houses with nice exteriors in places like East Grand Rapids or Charleston & you’ll see what I mean.

Nicer (at least in terms of visuals) big new builders like Toll Brothers & Ryan Homes also only build in certain markets and not at in others. In many areas there are basically no new builds.

Bonus since they don’t smoke marijuana there.

Flips are also a little odd looking—lots of Linoleum flooring

Whoops, sorry. OP could use Realtor.com to search state by state.
I assume areas with lower tax rates and more inventory will probably also be likely not to have updated houses unless they are almost new.

Not Pittsburgh itself obviously, but the "area" absolutely. Can even get a little closer in than some of these suggestions.

Why not? Plenty of nice areas in the city.
