Meanwhile, in the main city of Pittsburgh, residents had been living under FEDRA and military rule and became discontent with it. They rebelled, killing the soldiers, and took control over the city. They then made efforts to expand their control outside the city center, as when several groups of hunters invade and take control of areas within Waverly Township.
=== Events of The Last of Us ===
In the Summer of 2033, Joel Miller, Ellie Williams, Sam and Henry fled into Waverly Township to escape the hunters within Pittsburgh. They traveled through the remnants of Ish's community, killing numerous Stalkers along the way before entering the suburbs. Once there, the hunters living there confronted the group with a military sniper rifle, and later the Humvee from before. The group successfully fended them off, but later was forced to flee from the horde of infected attracted by the sounds of the fight."The Suburbs"
