I lived in California for decades...I rooted vociferously for the Bengals this year! I was upset for days. I'm a 49ers/Seahawks fan, but...along with Green Bay, and New England (I'm from Boston), I am adopting the Bengals!
I am originally from North of Nashville(almost Rural Suburbs). I have lived in Cincinnati over 7 years and have been extremely happy here. I can’t get over how centrally located the city is to the United States. I am close yet far away from Relatives and that’s how I like it!
it maybe centrallly located based on geography, but not in terms of travel.. very few direct flights out of the local airport, which makes it a pain in the ass to travel anywhere, especially internationally
Cincy doesn’t have a subway but does have the largest unused underground tunnel that was dug for a subway. The construction was halted due to war/depression. There are a few closed stations that you can go exploring in.
@@jaspreetsingh8434 they are hard to get into and illegal but one of the entrances can be seen off the highway. Look around on reddit and u might be able to find exactly where to go
@@jaspreetsingh8434 there is a place on Vine St. 2 blocks south of liberty St that does tours. Most of the entrances are locked. There's one below Hopple st. It's on your right on i75. You would never guess that's what it is if you didn't know. It used to be unlocked.
Cincy is a secret, for now. We considered Raleigh - we got priced out. Cincy is where Raleigh was around 1999… by the time people know about it, it’ll be ridiculously expensive and those prices are rising. Relatively moderate weather by midwest standards, excellent school districts (in the expensive suburbs) and not a lot of traffic/overpopulation.
I'm from Canada (Ontario - north, then south) have been here for 4 years. Pros: Love that it's so wooded (grew up Northern Ontario where towns are 60 miles apart with nothing but forest in between them), love the bike trails and hiking opportunities, love all of the breweries! Cons: Very hard to meet people here (most people are from here and have friends from their childhood, they even ask you what high school you went to instead of which college/university). For similar reasons, it's hard finding someone to date if you're single.
Agree. I think if you are married and want to start a family there are worse places you can do that Single folks looking for the vibrancy and social excitement will be dissapointed. Making friends is hard, too. Many people lived here all their lives as well as their friends from high school don't like going outside their boxes
I’m sold. My husband and I went to the Bearcats vs. SMU football game last night, and I knew that this could be a great area to live in. We currently live in Fort Wayne, IN where cost of living is similar.
The public library system, the museums, casinos and Playhouse in the Park are all pro points for the area. Also, please consider doing a video on Clifton. Thanks.
I'm was born and grew up in Cincy. I went away for college and have lived in several states/cities in the US and briefly outside the US for work. Looking forward to moving back to Cincinnati (from Washington, DC) for all of the reasons you listed.
How could you not mention the Arts? World class Symphony, Ballet, Opera, multiple theatres, music venues, wonderful museums of all kinds. We moved here from NYC and fell in love with the fabulous Art Scene.
I-71 just north of downtown - been under construction for the 3 years that I have lived here and I NEVER see construction workers working on it. They have to be the most incompetent construction company ever.
Part of the issue is State rules that prohibit working on the highway between certain hours. The crews get very limited windows to get things done. Not excusing it, just an FYI.
One time back in the 90's it snowed 15 inches. 2 days later it was in the 60's. People were wearing shorts, riding motorcycles with a foot of snow on the ground.
I just moved to northern KY for work this June, and this video has given me more useful info about the area than anyone i've talked to or research i've done, thank you!
From LA too, sames. Their parks and downtown architecture, and ice cream are much better than LA. Other than that it lacks diversity in its people, food, basically everything. It's a growing city so I have hope for it.
My interest in Cincinnati I'm going through a divorce a very horrible divorce and I'm looking for a fresh start my sister lives in Cincinnati Ohio she's invited me to live with her so I'm strongly considering moving to Cincinnati
Why does everyone think our Chilli is so unique? I always thought you had to have spaghetti underneath my chilli. And the Frischs tarter sauce thing that out of towner’s just can’t wait to eat and take back cases home with them amazes me!!
Strongly considering a job transfer to Cincinnati. Nashville has that "cool" factor going for it, but that's driven rent prices skyhigh. People look at me like I'm nuts when I say I might move to Cincinnati. That's okay though...keeps it a hidden gem.
I'm 62 lived here all my life but on my sons account wish someone had the financial ability to build a visitor hotel in Cincinnati with great marketing skills to provide great service and cuisine and transportation of tours of our zoo', parks, museums, Architecture like Union Terminal, Music Hall and the Banks. And various tours available of new breweries while describing the history of so many old breweries and the history of naming us the Queen City. Also Coordinated River Boat Cruises, Rides to Casino's and Horse Races, Train Rides to the Golden Lamb in Lebanon. Also extended tours of Wright Patterson AFB and the NFL Hall of Fame in Canton.
This video is great. I moved from Chicago to the Greater Cincinnati area back in 2006 and absolutely love it here. I am currently in Loveland, but I am looking to move downtown, which is how i ended up at your video. Great job! New subscriber and I will definitely be checking out more of your content.
Never been to Cincinnati but I'm planning on moving there next year. Currently in the Phoenix area but it's just a large hot parking lot that is now also expensive. Beautiful old buildings, nice city living, all four seasons and most importantly affordable. I can't wait
You will miss the sunshine, dry air, and mild temps in winter. Wife and I live well here, but the lack of open desert and mountains is crushing us with boredom. I do wish you all the best and think you'll like the change, but as I said above.
@@dieterh.9342 I'm actually from the Midwest originally. Az is a great place to vacation, but of the 7 states I've lived in across the country it's by far my least favorite. I miss my long Midwest summer days, the blistering storms that make you feel invincible, fall colors, first snowfalls, and most importantly the quality of the neighborhoods and community.
When driving into Cincy from the airport, I love playing Jurassic Park theme song as I approach downtown. Start at Kyle's Lane. The skyline is epic this way!
@@johnathandavis9098 People aren't as friendly as he says they are. They're not particularly rude just closed off, if you will. Crime is a pretty Major thing here. Shooting, theft, rape, ECT. It's not Detroit no, but it has its pockets. It's a pretty boring city if your not into beer, art and museums. Source lived in this f**king city for 13yrs trying to find somewhere new P.s it is actually pretty cheap here, so that's a plus.
@@brosefv759 trust me I don't need a lot of excitement. The places I've lived in Texas have wsy more crime, too many people and bad traffic and a studio apartment is 1k plus. So Cincy would be just fine. Plus the Bengals are my favorite team and I hate the humidity here down south. It's time for a change.
I lived in Cincinnati until abt 16 years ago. Eden Park, Findlay Market, the weather, the people, a solid economy. I live in Atlanta now and in terms of quality of life, Cincinnati is better. Atlanta is just sprawling and growing too fast for the infrastructure to keep up.
I’m from Venezuela, I came to Kentucky almost 5 years ago. I currently live in Kentucky and work in downtown Cincinnati. they are two fantastic states to live in! I think that for me what I like least about living here is the climate in winter because I come from a tropical country, however the states are prepared for each climate. your video is super educational and informative! keep it up!
Thank you! I appreciate the encouragement. I just met someone else from Venezuela yesterday. She said the same thing about the winters but is loving this summer weather.
I live within the 275 loop but outside the 'city'. If you are someone who is afraid of city crime, you may consider doing the same. You're close enough to enjoy the city, but far enough outside to enjoy the safety of suburb life. It's also still within the range of affordable living while moving up to Mason, Lebanon or Monroe your cost of living rises dramatically.
This. You don't even need to live in Hyde Park to have a safe place to live for a decent price. Places like Miamitown or Colt have 1k square feet for under 1,000$.
The old part looks really nice and kind of European to me, but the newer buildings are like any other modern building in the US. I wish they would construct more classical architecture again. And they need to get rid of all these parking lots and create more green spaces. American cities have too many parking lots. I have never seen that in Europe. People should use more public transport instead.
Baby if you’ve ever wondered Wondered whatever became of me. I’m living on the air in Cincinnati. Cincinnati WKRP Got kind of tired packing and unpacking Town to town up and down the dial Maybe you and me were never meant to be Just maybe think of me once in awhile I’m at WKRP in Cincinnati.
Lacks racial and religious diversity. It's not the worst because they have P&G, Kroger, and some other international companies that make it more comfortable, but you will miss your people. It's one of those places where you make an extra effort to say hello to people that look like you because it might be a minute before you see another one. The African Americans tend to all go to the same places so you'll see the same people over and over and over. It's the same situation if you are Jewish. There isn't any nightlife on the Cincinnati side of the river, you have to go to Kentucky. I shouldn't say none, it's much better on the Kentucky side. The city is one of the most gay-friendly cities in the country. There's a large gay population in Cincinnati, more than I have seen in any other city. If you aren't homophobic, you'll find the gay community to be very welcoming. Overall, Cincinnati is a nice city. I had a lot of fun living there but I was happy to leave.
We lived in Cincy for 7 years - ‘14-‘21 and want to return after being in AZ the past couple years. I think the points in the video summarize it very well. It is an amazing place to raise a family
Well I agree with some of what he said in regards to the transportation issue because it's poor. I can also agree that downtown Cincinnati has a better skyline than a couple of decades ago. The stadiums and a couple of historical sites are some attractions but I grew up in Philadelphia Pa and the food here is not good, the people aren't as friendly as stated and it's not a diverse city. From my observation as an outsider looking in and living here for a few years, this is one of the most racist cities in America, It is not diverse in that this is a very segregated city. The equality here sucks and you can be a person of color with a PHD and the whites in this city will treat you as if you don't have a high school diploma. The people here are narrow minded, back stabbers and fake. You can't trust them as far as you can spit. Where I come from the food is delicious because it is diverse with all different ethnic groups all over the city, Philly also have a lot of historical landmarks and their downtown area will put Cincinnati's to shame. It is racism there too but Cincinnati is blatantly racist. In the summer these Cincinnati kids don't have anything to do. When I was growing up in Philly, we had summer camps, block parties, and block captains would even arrange for all the kids on the block to go to amusement parks. Most of the people that I know that moved to Cincinnati moved back to where they came from within five years
I have lived in NKY for 8 years, but I am from South Jersey/ Philly. I don't think you can blame the river for lack of subway. The Delaware River is twice the size and it still has a subway. People just don't want to pay the larger cost, and the Mid-West was screwed over by the big Motor companies back in the 70s. The big three promised passes cities like Cincinnati and Pittsburgh we get rid of street cars and not build subways. The Problem was cities had to still build roads and infrastructure and pay for transit authorities and Depot's. I love Cinny,, but what doesn't help transportation is every new music and sports venue is being built downtown. The city isn't made to deal with that kind of congestion.
I come from Philly myself and most of what was said in this video is not true. This is one of the worst cities to live especially if you're black. There is no diversity, it's racist as hell, the food is awful, the transportation is poor and the people are not nice. Most are fake, backstabbing, narrowminded, haters with no personality. These people here are not nice and many have personality disorders. Good food is in Philly, it's way more diverse, it has many historical landmarks and the people aren't fake. You will know if they don't like you. The only historical landmarks Cincinnati has is Union Terminal, and the underground railroad. Cincinnati is so racist that even if a black person has a PHD they will be treated as if they didn't even have a high school diploma. Cincinnati is just a low class city made up of people who want to feel superior over others.
I love Cincinnati. I miss Cincinnati. We lived there 4 years and our landlord sold the house we were renting. We made a big mistake and moved to Kansas city. Sux. Trying to get back. But can't find a house. Love oakley norwood area. Lovu Cincy!
We’re gonna be living in Cincinnati for the next few months and I’m so excited after watching this 😊 being from south texas I really hope we get to see snow
100% LEGIT. Cincy, coming north on 75 is the greatest skyline in the US. No disputing it. Great city, people, culture. The indie music scene? ...just can't do goetta though.
WHAT the Reds have more history in the MLB than the (Bungles) have in the NFL . There never going to go to the SUPER BOWL until the Brown family relinquishes the team to someone they don’t know & that’s a fact .
Ok that's your opinion...my opinion is the best thing is THE BENGALS...either way their both from Cincinnati so I'm not sure y you just tried to do a Cincinnati team vs another Cincinnati team..I personally don't watch baseball but if the Reds win the world series then I will be happy..I'm from Cincinnati so I want to see every team win..but the only 1 I care about is THE BENGALS...doesn't have to be a debate....WHODEY
Moved to Florence KY 2 months ago from Pennsylvania... the jury is still out on this place and I'm convinced NO ONE knows what real Italian Food around here!
Yeah ... that's not going to be a thing in Florence. I grew up there. Try Pompilio's in Newport, or if you can save up and splurge, Sotto downtown is amazing.
The restaurants! People who visit here from out of town can’t wait to eat at Frischs, Montg. Inn, Skyline, Aglamessies, etc.. Family in for visits want to go to Frischs before they even unpack!!
Have lived on the east side of Cincinnati area my entire life… the constant gray skies are the WORST… it affects my mood tremendously, so much so that I’m moving to Florida. We visit Florida often and after a few days of being back home my allergies are back in full effect as does my depression. Although There are lots of great things about Ohio in general, it comes down to weather for me. I realize that Florida has its own list of issues, but I love the sun!
I’m personally thinking of moving to Orlando from Cincy and yes the weather is great here aside from the crazy humidity and heat in the summer haha. But Florida has 3 seasons that are beautiful (fall, winter, spring) where Cincy only has 2 (fall, spring). There are no shortages of things to do in Orlando, but cost of living will reflect that for sure and also traffic can be bad
Perfect North Ski slopes not mentioned. I agree, a con is the gray overcast days we have. I've lived here over 25 years and it still bothers me. But overall it's a good video you put together and a decent place to live. I think it's really weird when someone asks you what school you went to and they mean high school...that is so weird
we have a corrupt city government, which has been going on for decades. Our sports teams are mediocre, except for a few years. Crime is rampant, check the stats of the zip code you're in. Also, if you have allergies, asthma, or any breathing problems; this isn't for you. we have about 167 days of sunshine per year so if you need more; head south. Our food (with a few exceptions) is mediocre, so if your taste and palate aren't picky; it won't be a problem. Taxes are on the high side (property and sales tax) but you can shop in other counties and states where it's lower. last, if you aren't accepting of diversity; this isnt the place for you (check stats on demographics). It's not the worst city, but there are others that are nicer.
Sure the government is corrupt but every large metropolitan city is. The same with crime but it's always in the same areas where everyone knows not to go.
Thank You. Overall a very accurate report. I'm from Cincy/NKY. I received my education here. When I became of age I moved out to Denver, CO, stayed for 35 Yrs, got out during the "Great Recession". When I came back; I recognized how very reasonable the cost of living is to Denver. Yes, people are friendly here. Surprised me just how welcome(d) I was upon my return from Denver. I'll send this report out to friends and family. Thanks.
Moving from Boulder, Co will give You a kind of Culture Shock. Cincinnati is considerably more Conservative than Colorado. Cincinnati cost of living can be Very reasonable compared to Boulder. Look on you tube to find City by City comparisons. I wish You well.
I'm not sure of whom u asked, about Cincinnati, but to each it's own, me personally, This city know nothing about diversity, the city "leadership," horribly, downtown is a HOTT MESS!!, this city reminds me of the south back in the 50's, n 60's, (THUMBS DOWN).
Cincinnati love small business! I am a Potter and I make a living off my craft. My wife and I run a small LLC, and we rely on all the amazing outdoor craft markets to reach people in the tri-state. The Off Market in Oakley and Blue Ash is one off the best in Ohio.
within the actual city, transportation is relatively nice and there is a free streetcar. However, you cannot get very far outside of the city or to any of the nearby neighborhoods
I watched this video 2 years ago before moving to Cincinnati and now that I've moved and lived here 2 years, I'll have to say overall, it's very nice, but there are a few things I DO NOT like. 1. Taxes are really high. 2. There is zero food diversity. Locals THINK there's a great selection of food, but it's basically all burgers, fries, and pizza. Case in point, nearlly all Thai restaurants also sell Sushi... enough said there. 3. People are generally really nice, but they are really unaware of life outside of Ohio and US. It's hard to have a conversation with someone unless you're talking about sports. All in all, the pros listed above are all true, and is a good place to live.
Love the videos! Thanks. Just found out I'm transferring to the Cincinnati airport area from Yuma, Az sometime in the next 6 months. Your videos have been giving me a good idea of what what we are in for. Looks like it will be a great place for my 8yo to grow up.
The greater Cincinnati airport is in Kentucky. Kentucky got a little pissed off at that so the name is now the greater Cincinnati and northern Kentucky airport.
My husband and I are contemplating moving to Cincinnati …. We have a pet domesticated mini goat (she really is quieter/behaved better than most dogs) and have read that there is no ordinance against having goats as backyard pets…. Do you know where I could find more information on that?
Went to school at UC. Lived here 5 years. Pros: lots and lots of bars Cons: I've seen so many shootings I don't remember them all. And I'm not talking on the news
I grew up in Cincinnati, I left in 2012 to move to Seattle where my brother was living, and he convinced me to move. Seattle is great but it's no Cincinnati. I was 41 when I moved so Cincinnati is a part of my genetic makeup. The one thing I always tell people, who after finding out I lived in Cincinnati (and once they stop singing the WKRP theme song) is what was the best part about it. I would say that it was a mid-sized city with big city amenities. It's great, because it's not too big, but we are not left behind when it comes to the latest and greatest things a big city usually has. We are like a big city that wasn't full of itself in a sense. The people are great, always will be. It's beautiful, the river is great and my trips to Newport and Convington were great as well. The Bengals did make it to the playoffs in the 2000's but the QB got sacked/injured early on. We had high hopes, but the fill-in QB wasn't as seasoned as he could have been. I am not a huge sports fan, but I do enjoy going to games, but I'd be lying if I were to say I knew all the names :) I did sort of at the time though. After I moved, they started getting better, and like you said they made the playoffs like five years in a row. Seattle is a huge sports town, in the same vein as Cincinnati. They are diehards and sometimes it's tough being a fan here as well. Though they did go to back-to-back Superbowls when I first moved here (or around then). I always say that when Seattle plays, I root for them UNLESS they are playing Cincy. However, if Cincy loses, then I am not as heartbroken as I would have been when I was living in Cincy. It's kind of like my team didn't win but my second team did, if that makes sense. So, it takes some of the sting out of things. You forgot to tell everyone that we put the chili on spaghetti. Everyone thinks I am mad until they taste it. Until Amazon Fresh started carrying Skyline Chili, I had to make do with Hormel. Not the same, but kind of made it less unbearable. Also, I remember in grade school, and we would all love it when we got chili spaghetti for lunch. Though it was a bit crazy hearing a bunch of fourth and fifth graders getting excited about a three way. lol. It's like "awesome, we're having a three way today!!" Oh, to be young and innocent again :) I do miss the main Public Library location. I used to do a lot of writing there and I did a lot of reading/researching things just for fun. I learned a lot about history and old Hollywood and old Comic strips that way. Cincinnati had so many options and so many activities you could do even if you were broke (which is how I grew up). I lived in Over-the-Rhine back in the 70s until about 94 then moved to College Hill and then off to Colerain Twnshp. So many great memories. And going to Sawyer Point and walking along the Serpentine Wall are memories I will always cheris.
Just moved to Cincinnati and I love it. Only things that are annoying graffiti is on the rise and some people just throw trash out their car windows continuously.
I totally agree that it is the last cool place that is affordable. It reminds me of Portland, Oregon at the Turn of the Century. Tons of DIY arts scene, wish more national bands came through, but there is great bands in Cinci. West Price Hill doesn't get enough love, I had the best tacos I have had outside of San Antonio there. As someone from Philadelphia, your public transit is not that bad. Actually I was impressed. While it is mostly busses they show up on time. You can find out to the minute when the next bus is going to show up (something SEPTA sadly lacks). I wish they ran at least one bus after closing time at least from the Northside to Downtown it would make it much easier to attend shows.
A con for me about the weather in Cincinnati, is you can literally never tell what the weather will be because it changes every minute and does some drastic things, lol
There's a reason so many people move to Cincinnati (regular joe's and retired major leaguers/pro athletes) that continue to make Cincinnati their home. Best city I ever lived in. Love the small town charm.
We just moved to Cincinnati from Sacramento CA. It rains so much here. I wish it would stop so I could go ride my bike on the Loveland bike trail!! Love that trail!
Best Pro IMO is the cost of living here. I'm able to visit any city i want due to the affordable housing here. CON weather just sucks in general. but doesn't sound like coastal living is all that great anymore.
Hello Eric, I live down here in The Beautiful State of Louisiana but I've Always been a Huge Cincinnati BENGALS Fan and also that name Cincinnati it sounds Italian or even maybe a bit Greek. My question to you Eric is as a Big Admirer of The City as a whole that name what is the origin of this very different spelled and sounding name. Please talk about that original and unique and pretty name at least for me anyway. And GO BENGALS!!! Who DEY from Louisiana Bengals Fan. 🐯👍
another great thing is in northern Kentucky and mostly Covington there's a big football and cheer community for children. I grew up in Covington and did cheer for years and met a bunch of amazing people and we always had a lot of fun especially with the Tiger Bowl (it's basically like the super bowl but with every age group) and rain or shine we play and cheer and the football and cheer community actually help the community a lot with different things either being fundraising for the homeless or at risk people or community service and volunteering to help different people. it also helps single parents be able to work later because it's after school and no matter your situation the parents and organizers are willing to help you out weather it be you need someone to pick your kid up from school to get them to practice or you can't afford to buy new cleats and they either have an old or extra pear that your kid can have
I've lived in Cincinnati my whole life and would never want to live anywhere else. Our city is rich in history, chalk full of things to do, and is so so beautiful!
We have lots of honest good people in Kentucky Indiana Ohio. One Christmas I went To Florence mall spent two hundred and forgot my bag in the bathroom went all the way home call them backup and someone turned it in unbelievable good honest hard working people.🍻🍻🍻
@@Dark_Harmony All the Cincinnati killings happen west of 75...for the most part. There are some central shit holes like Norwood where everyone is white but thinks they're "of color."
Now THAT is a pro I can agree with. I was a frequent flyer as a kid, then passed the torch to my younger daughter. When she was 16, she was playing blindfolded Marco Polo and ran fast as she could into a tree. I took her to Children's- again. 5 serious looking docs had her in a huge neck brace. She had a couple cuts on her face and one side was swelling up. They were asking her questions like did she hit the windshield? And she would just give them a confused look. Finally, one of the docs asked was she wearing a seat belt. Finally she's like "oh I wasn't driving. I actually RAN into a tree." I saw the smirks as they started looking at each other over her mangled body. Three of them dramatically turned away, snatching off their gloves, shaking their heads. 🤣 On the way out, one came back and said "I knew I've seen you before. Listen, when you feel the urge to say to your friends "hey! Watch this!"- DON'T DO IT!!! Wise words.
@@MariaGutierrez-vf5vq I never got her name. I do recall, she was a white woman, I'd say in her 30s, and this was about 4 years ago. Beyond being basically pleasant looking, it seems she was neither very tall nor very short, very heavy nor very thin. I don't recall noticing any definite descriptors.
I can vouch that Cincinnati has some of the best milkshakes in the country. UDF & Graeters combined
Was just talking about this with some friends.😋
Both good but hands down the best milkshake I've ever had was from Aglamesis.
I lived in California for decades...I rooted vociferously for the Bengals this year! I was upset for days.
I'm a 49ers/Seahawks fan, but...along with Green Bay, and New England (I'm from Boston), I am adopting the Bengals!
YES! I love my Cincinnati ❤️
It is Cincinnati but it’s Creamy Whip or Pendleton Parlor (same owner/product).
It’s weird seeing a video about Cincy and I actually live there!
What part? I do too
Same here Anderson baby🤙
Same
same!
I used to live there. I live in Naples Florida now. I don’t miss the weather one bit!!!
I am originally from North of Nashville(almost Rural Suburbs). I have lived in Cincinnati over 7 years and have been extremely happy here. I can’t get over how centrally located the city is to the United States. I am close yet far away from Relatives and that’s how I like it!

it maybe centrallly located based on geography, but not in terms of travel.. very few direct flights out of the local airport, which makes it a pain in the ass to travel anywhere, especially internationally
Cincy doesn’t have a subway but does have the largest unused underground tunnel that was dug for a subway. The construction was halted due to war/depression. There are a few closed stations that you can go exploring in.
Could you please post addresses to them? I would love to go explore them :)

i tried to go a couple years ago and both entrances were locked
@@jaspreetsingh8434 i don’t have the address but they are posted online in some blogs. Kind of sad that Cincy gave up on building a train line.

Cincy is a secret, for now. We considered Raleigh - we got priced out. Cincy is where Raleigh was around 1999… by the time people know about it, it’ll be ridiculously expensive and those prices are rising. Relatively moderate weather by midwest standards, excellent school districts (in the expensive suburbs) and not a lot of traffic/overpopulation.
I live in Raleigh right now. It’s crazy expensive. I’m paying $1300+ for a 1bd 1bth
@TheMelloFx that's it?!?! Sheesh maybe I need to get out of California 😂
@@smashadams85100Go to a small town in California and you can pay much less, problem solved!
Best city in the country. I love living here. The charm is amazing and so is the infrastructure. Also the food 😍
cincy has a great music scene as well. underground garage bands in clifton as well as house/jazz bars in otr and walnut hills.
Are you serious? This must be a friends post on friends site?
Name some good spots? Looking to check it out
Bogart's and Annie's we're great back in the day. Kinda sucks now.
I'm from Canada (Ontario - north, then south) have been here for 4 years.
Pros: Love that it's so wooded (grew up Northern Ontario where towns are 60 miles apart with nothing but forest in between them), love the bike trails and hiking opportunities, love all of the breweries!
Cons: Very hard to meet people here (most people are from here and have friends from their childhood, they even ask you what high school you went to instead of which college/university). For similar reasons, it's hard finding someone to date if you're single.
Thanks for sharing.
@@TeamSztanyo True statement
It’s not hard, it’s impossible.
Agree. I think if you are married and want to start a family there are worse places you can do that
Single folks looking for the vibrancy and social excitement will be dissapointed.
Making friends is hard, too. Many people lived here all their lives as well as their friends from high school don't like going outside their boxes
very true, especially for westsiders where they will always ask you which high school you went to lol
I’m sold. My husband and I went to the Bearcats vs. SMU football game last night, and I knew that this could be a great area to live in. We currently live in Fort Wayne, IN where cost of living is similar.
Biggest con: bipolar weather, 95 one day, 65 the next with the same skies (I'm not even exaggerating
This is not false.
Also true
I was looking for this lol
It’s like that everywhere in the Midwest
I always say that if you don't like Cincinnati weather, just wait 5 minutes.
The public library system, the museums, casinos and Playhouse in the Park are all pro points for the area. Also, please consider doing a video on Clifton. Thanks.
The sky line is beautiful when coming down the hill from ky.
💯
I think it looks best coming from 471 into the city
"The Cut in the Hill"
I'm was born and grew up in Cincy. I went away for college and have lived in several states/cities in the US and briefly outside the US for work. Looking forward to moving back to Cincinnati (from Washington, DC) for all of the reasons you listed.
Thanks for sharing!
Same here. In the DMV but looking to move back to be with family.
How could you not mention the Arts? World class Symphony, Ballet, Opera, multiple theatres, music venues, wonderful museums of all kinds. We moved here from NYC and fell in love with the fabulous Art Scene.
💯💯💯I need more sophisticated friends. 🤣
The art scene ain't nothing
Thanks Carol for that 411
Couldn’t agree more. I like it more than Chicago.
@@reginaldmerriweather8513 Cincinnati has world class arts, and has for over a hundred years!
I-71 just north of downtown - been under construction for the 3 years that I have lived here and I NEVER see construction workers working on it. They have to be the most incompetent construction company ever.
Probably has something to do with money and budgets, not the construction company.
75 has been under construction for over 20 years!!!!
@@myrasmama your Not realistic
THERE is more money than you would ever believe
They work on it around 3 am. I know I see them out when coming home from a late shift
Part of the issue is State rules that prohibit working on the highway between certain hours. The crews get very limited windows to get things done. Not excusing it, just an FYI.
Sometimes you get all 4 seasons in one day.
True statement! 😂
So true!😅😅😅
6 months sweltering, 6 months freezing. The rest of the year is quite nice
One time back in the 90's it snowed 15 inches. 2 days later it was in the 60's. People were wearing shorts, riding motorcycles with a foot of snow on the ground.
lol
I just moved to northern KY for work this June, and this video has given me more useful info about the area than anyone i've talked to or research i've done, thank you!
Glad it helped!
Coming from LA... NKY isn't too bad but idk I don't care for Cincy much
Thanks for sharing.
From LA too, sames. Their parks and downtown architecture, and ice cream are much better than LA. Other than that it lacks diversity in its people, food, basically everything. It's a growing city so I have hope for it.
My interest in Cincinnati I'm going through a divorce a very horrible divorce and I'm looking for a fresh start my sister lives in Cincinnati Ohio she's invited me to live with her so I'm strongly considering moving to Cincinnati
Cincy is cool. Getting better daily. Lots of good people here. Lots of nice rural areas w lots of nice parks.
Why does everyone think our Chilli is so unique? I always thought you had to have spaghetti underneath my chilli. And the Frischs tarter sauce thing that out of towner’s just can’t wait to eat and take back cases home with them amazes me!!
Strongly considering a job transfer to Cincinnati. Nashville has that "cool" factor going for it, but that's driven rent prices skyhigh. People look at me like I'm nuts when I say I might move to Cincinnati. That's okay though...keeps it a hidden gem.
Shhhhh ...
I’m from Nashville and rent is stupid high. Reason why I’m moving
Due to life’s twist and turns, I left Cincy over 50 years ago and I’ll always remember the hills, forests and foods.
Yep Nashville has gotten to big to crowded to fast. I love Cincinnati we feel like the only tourist in the city when we go
I'm 62 lived here all my life but on my sons account wish someone had the financial ability to build a visitor hotel in Cincinnati with great marketing skills to provide great service and cuisine and transportation of tours of our zoo', parks, museums, Architecture like Union Terminal, Music Hall and the Banks. And various tours available of new breweries while describing the history of so many old breweries and the history of naming us the Queen City.
Also Coordinated River Boat Cruises, Rides to Casino's and Horse Races, Train Rides to the Golden Lamb in Lebanon.
Also extended tours of Wright Patterson AFB and the NFL Hall of Fame in Canton.
You didn’t mention the Cincinnati Cyclones when talking about our sports teams! They’ve won multiple championships! Hockey is loved sport here 😁
I've never not gone to a Cyclones or old Mighty Ducks game at the Cincinnati Gardens and not had a blast.
This video is great. I moved from Chicago to the Greater Cincinnati area back in 2006 and absolutely love it here. I am currently in Loveland, but I am looking to move downtown, which is how i ended up at your video. Great job! New subscriber and I will definitely be checking out more of your content.
Thanks Scott. Glad you enjoyed it!
Never been to Cincinnati but I'm planning on moving there next year. Currently in the Phoenix area but it's just a large hot parking lot that is now also expensive. Beautiful old buildings, nice city living, all four seasons and most importantly affordable. I can't wait
You will miss the sunshine, dry air, and mild temps in winter. Wife and I live well here, but the lack of open desert and mountains is crushing us with boredom. I do wish you all the best and think you'll like the change, but as I said above.
@@dieterh.9342 I'm actually from the Midwest originally. Az is a great place to vacation, but of the 7 states I've lived in across the country it's by far my least favorite. I miss my long Midwest summer days, the blistering storms that make you feel invincible, fall colors, first snowfalls, and most importantly the quality of the neighborhoods and community.
I'm seeing this late: did you move to Cincy?
I’ve lived in Cincy my whole life. You pretty much nailed it. It’s a good place to live but doesn’t overwhelm you.
When driving into Cincy from the airport, I love playing Jurassic Park theme song as I approach downtown. Start at Kyle's Lane. The skyline is epic this way!
Especially at night!
Stay away from I 75 going across the bridge into the city.
The architecture is cool here, my brother moved here from Mesa Arizona and fell in love with all the old buildings we have.
Great point. There is some realllly cool architecture.
Don't move here......
Why?
@@johnathandavis9098
People aren't as friendly as he says they are. They're not particularly rude just closed off, if you will.
Crime is a pretty Major thing here. Shooting, theft, rape, ECT. It's not Detroit no, but it has its pockets.
It's a pretty boring city if your not into beer, art and museums.
Source lived in this f**king city for 13yrs trying to find somewhere new
P.s it is actually pretty cheap here, so that's a plus.
@@brosefv759 trust me I don't need a lot of excitement. The places I've lived in Texas have wsy more crime, too many people and bad traffic and a studio apartment is 1k plus. So Cincy would be just fine. Plus the Bengals are my favorite team and I hate the humidity here down south. It's time for a change.
Moving to Cincinnati in two months-this is super helpful and interesting! Especially learning about Over The Rhine 👍🏼
Be careful in cinci
Awesome! Where abouts?
How do you like it?
Cincinnati, Hamilton County,OH, most tax burdened county in the state.
Yup, that’s one of the many reasons why I moved across the River…..
Exactly why it's a TERRIBLE idea to use public tax dollars to build sports stadiums and then expect some kind of benefit to occur.
@@alextsahalis6984 the stadium no longer and isn't a factor. Good try though.
Right I just moved here. First time in my live I knew there’s something called municipal income tax. Picked the wrong area. 🤦🏻♀️
@@floyd49494949 .... TQL ? in the West End ? The owners are footing a lot of the bill, but some taxpayer dollars are also in the mix.
I lived in Cincinnati until abt 16 years ago. Eden Park, Findlay Market, the weather, the people, a solid economy. I live in Atlanta now and in terms of quality of life, Cincinnati is better. Atlanta is just sprawling and growing too fast for the infrastructure to keep up.
Yep.I just recently started to look into relocating and Cincinnati is better in terms of quality of life
U forgot a big con: Xavier university. GO BEARCATS!!!
I beg to differ! GO MUSKIES!!😁
We can all agree ... the Crosstown Shootout rarely disappoints.
@@TeamSztanyo Amen to that!
Cant spell sucks without UC
Amen
Cincinnati kinda reminds me of Jacksonville. Jax surprisingly affordable and has a small town feel as well.
Downtown Cincinnati is my favorite downtown. It’s big enough that it’s interesting but small enough that it’s very easy to navigate
Pro: nky and hiking/biking trails
Con: brent spence bridge 🤢🤮
I’m from Venezuela, I came to Kentucky almost 5 years ago. I currently live in Kentucky and work in downtown Cincinnati. they are two fantastic states to live in! I think that for me what I like least about living here is the climate in winter because I come from a tropical country, however the states are prepared for each climate. your video is super educational and informative! keep it up!
Thank you! I appreciate the encouragement. I just met someone else from Venezuela yesterday. She said the same thing about the winters but is loving this summer weather.
I came from New York 5 years ago and Cincy is home now
@Matty's World Glad to have you.
Mariby, mi esposa es de Ccs y nos vamos a mudar a Cincinnati. Como es la vida por ahi?
I live within the 275 loop but outside the 'city'. If you are someone who is afraid of city crime, you may consider doing the same. You're close enough to enjoy the city, but far enough outside to enjoy the safety of suburb life. It's also still within the range of affordable living while moving up to Mason, Lebanon or Monroe your cost of living rises dramatically.
This. You don't even need to live in Hyde Park to have a safe place to live for a decent price. Places like Miamitown or Colt have 1k square feet for under 1,000$.
The old part looks really nice and kind of European to me, but the newer buildings are like any other modern building in the US. I wish they would construct more classical architecture again. And they need to get rid of all these parking lots and create more green spaces. American cities have too many parking lots. I have never seen that in Europe. People should use more public transport instead.
Baby if you’ve ever wondered
Wondered whatever became of me. I’m living on the air in Cincinnati.
Cincinnati WKRP
Got kind of tired packing and unpacking
Town to town up and down the dial
Maybe you and me were never meant to be
Just maybe think of me once in awhile
I’m at WKRP in Cincinnati.
Lacks racial and religious diversity. It's not the worst because they have P&G, Kroger, and some other international companies that make it more comfortable, but you will miss your people. It's one of those places where you make an extra effort to say hello to people that look like you because it might be a minute before you see another one. The African Americans tend to all go to the same places so you'll see the same people over and over and over. It's the same situation if you are Jewish.
There isn't any nightlife on the Cincinnati side of the river, you have to go to Kentucky. I shouldn't say none, it's much better on the Kentucky side.
The city is one of the most gay-friendly cities in the country. There's a large gay population in Cincinnati, more than I have seen in any other city. If you aren't homophobic, you'll find the gay community to be very welcoming.
Overall, Cincinnati is a nice city. I had a lot of fun living there but I was happy to leave.
We lived in Cincy for 7 years - ‘14-‘21 and want to return after being in AZ the past couple years. I think the points in the video summarize it very well. It is an amazing place to raise a family
Well I agree with some of what he said in regards to the transportation issue because it's poor. I can also agree that downtown Cincinnati has a better skyline than a couple of decades ago. The stadiums and a couple of historical sites are some attractions but I grew up in Philadelphia Pa and the food here is not good, the people aren't as friendly as stated and it's not a diverse city. From my observation as an outsider looking in and living here for a few years, this is one of the most racist cities in America, It is not diverse in that this is a very segregated city. The equality here sucks and you can be a person of color with a PHD and the whites in this city will treat you as if you don't have a high school diploma. The people here are narrow minded, back stabbers and fake. You can't trust them as far as you can spit. Where I come from the food is delicious because it is diverse with all different ethnic groups all over the city, Philly also have a lot of historical landmarks and their downtown area will put Cincinnati's to shame. It is racism there too but Cincinnati is blatantly racist. In the summer these Cincinnati kids don't have anything to do. When I was growing up in Philly, we had summer camps, block parties, and block captains would even arrange for all the kids on the block to go to amusement parks. Most of the people that I know that moved to Cincinnati moved back to where they came from within five years
I have lived in NKY for 8 years, but I am from South Jersey/ Philly. I don't think you can blame the river for lack of subway. The Delaware River is twice the size and it still has a subway. People just don't want to pay the larger cost, and the Mid-West was screwed over by the big Motor companies back in the 70s. The big three promised passes cities like Cincinnati and Pittsburgh we get rid of street cars and not build subways. The Problem was cities had to still build roads and infrastructure and pay for transit authorities and Depot's. I love Cinny,, but what doesn't help transportation is every new music and sports venue is being built downtown. The city isn't made to deal with that kind of congestion.
Good insight. Thanks for sharing.
AND not bike friendly (7 hills).
I come from Philly myself and most of what was said in this video is not true. This is one of the worst cities to live especially if you're black. There is no diversity, it's racist as hell, the food is awful, the transportation is poor and the people are not nice. Most are fake, backstabbing, narrowminded, haters with no personality. These people here are not nice and many have personality disorders.
Good food is in Philly, it's way more diverse, it has many historical landmarks and the people aren't fake. You will know if they don't like you. The only historical landmarks Cincinnati has is Union Terminal, and the underground railroad. Cincinnati is so racist that even if a black person has a PHD they will be treated as if they didn't even have a high school diploma. Cincinnati is just a low class city made up of people who want to feel superior over others.
I love Cincinnati. I miss Cincinnati. We lived there 4 years and our landlord sold the house we were renting. We made a big mistake and moved to Kansas city. Sux. Trying to get back. But can't find a house. Love oakley norwood area. Lovu Cincy!
Findlay Market is a gem --- an amazing place.
It can't be stated enough.
We’re gonna be living in Cincinnati for the next few months and I’m so excited after watching this 😊 being from south texas I really hope we get to see snow
We're sick of the snow in the midwest, but I hope you enjoyed it😆
100% LEGIT. Cincy, coming north on 75 is the greatest skyline in the US. No disputing it. Great city, people, culture. The indie music scene? ...just can't do goetta though.
BEST THING about Cincinnati is The Bengals!!!! WHODEY
WHO DEY!
WHAT the Reds have more history in the MLB than the (Bungles) have in the NFL . There never going to go to the SUPER BOWL until the Brown family relinquishes the team to someone they don’t know & that’s a fact .
Ok that's your opinion...my opinion is the best thing is THE BENGALS...either way their both from Cincinnati so I'm not sure y you just tried to do a Cincinnati team vs another Cincinnati team..I personally don't watch baseball but if the Reds win the world series then I will be happy..I'm from Cincinnati so I want to see every team win..but the only 1 I care about is THE BENGALS...doesn't have to be a debate....WHODEY
WhoDey!!!
im considering leaving california and recently Cincinnati came to mind so here i am.
thank you for this video.
and GO BENGALS!
Did you move and, if so, where did you go? I'm looking to move, also.
Moved to Florence KY 2 months ago from Pennsylvania... the jury is still out on this place and I'm convinced NO ONE knows what real Italian Food around here!
Yeah ... that's not going to be a thing in Florence. I grew up there. Try Pompilio's in Newport, or if you can save up and splurge, Sotto downtown is amazing.
Try Olive Garden for authentic Italian cuisine

Dang a lot white people. Only about 4% Hispanic population in Cincinnati.
The restaurants! People who visit here from out of town can’t wait to eat at Frischs, Montg. Inn, Skyline, Aglamessies, etc.. Family in for visits want to go to Frischs before they even unpack!!
They do kind of work their way into your instincts after a while.
I was so disappointed when I found out skyline and goldstar weren't national franchises...
Have lived on the east side of Cincinnati area my entire life… the constant gray skies are the WORST… it affects my mood tremendously, so much so that I’m moving to Florida. We visit Florida often and after a few days of being back home my allergies are back in full effect as does my depression. Although There are lots of great things about Ohio in general, it comes down to weather for me. I realize that Florida has its own list of issues, but I love the sun!
I’m personally thinking of moving to Orlando from Cincy and yes the weather is great here aside from the crazy humidity and heat in the summer haha. But Florida has 3 seasons that are beautiful (fall, winter, spring) where Cincy only has 2 (fall, spring). There are no shortages of things to do in Orlando, but cost of living will reflect that for sure and also traffic can be bad
another pro: JOE BURROW BABYYY 🐅🐅
WHO DEY
Perfect North Ski slopes not mentioned. I agree, a con is the gray overcast days we have. I've lived here over 25 years and it still bothers me. But overall it's a good video you put together and a decent place to live. I think it's really weird when someone asks you what school you went to and they mean high school...that is so weird
Thanks! I appreciate it.
I do not recommend that anyone move to Cincinnati. It is not a fun place to live at all.
You get 4 seasons of weather....all in 10mins
we have a corrupt city government, which has been going on for decades. Our sports teams are mediocre, except for a few years. Crime is rampant, check the stats of the zip code you're in. Also, if you have allergies, asthma, or any breathing problems; this isn't for you. we have about 167 days of sunshine per year so if you need more; head south. Our food (with a few exceptions) is mediocre, so if your taste and palate aren't picky; it won't be a problem. Taxes are on the high side (property and sales tax) but you can shop in other counties and states where it's lower. last,
if you aren't accepting of diversity; this isnt the place for you (check stats on demographics). It's not the worst city, but there are others that are nicer.
Sure the government is corrupt but every large metropolitan city is. The same with crime but it's always in the same areas where everyone knows not to go.
Newyork city in the house your city seems nice
Thank You. Overall a very accurate report. I'm from Cincy/NKY. I received my education here. When I became of age I moved out to Denver, CO, stayed for 35 Yrs, got out during the "Great Recession". When I came back; I recognized how very reasonable the cost of living is to Denver. Yes, people are friendly here. Surprised me just how welcome(d) I was upon
my return from Denver. I'll send this report out to friends and family. Thanks.
Kind of you. Thanks!
Overall do you like Denver or Cincinnati better? I’m gonna be moving from Boulder, Colorado to Cincinnati soon
Moving from Boulder, Co will give
You a kind of Culture Shock. Cincinnati is considerably more
Conservative than Colorado.
Cincinnati cost of living can be
Very reasonable compared to
Boulder. Look on you tube to find
City by City comparisons. I wish
You well.
I'm not sure of whom u asked, about Cincinnati, but to each it's own, me personally, This city know nothing about diversity, the city "leadership," horribly, downtown is a HOTT MESS!!, this city reminds me of the south back in the 50's, n 60's, (THUMBS DOWN).
Cincinnati love small business! I am a Potter and I make a living off my craft. My wife and I run a small LLC, and we rely on all the amazing outdoor craft markets to reach people in the tri-state. The Off Market in Oakley and Blue Ash is one off the best in Ohio.
Love it!
within the actual city, transportation is relatively nice and there is a free streetcar. However, you cannot get very far outside of the city or to any of the nearby neighborhoods
You spoke of nothing that’s actually Cincinnati. You spoke about Newport/Covington more than real Cincinnati neighborhoods.
I watched this video 2 years ago before moving to Cincinnati and now that I've moved and lived here 2 years, I'll have to say overall, it's very nice, but there are a few things I DO NOT like. 1. Taxes are really high. 2. There is zero food diversity. Locals THINK there's a great selection of food, but it's basically all burgers, fries, and pizza. Case in point, nearlly all Thai restaurants also sell Sushi... enough said there. 3. People are generally really nice, but they are really unaware of life outside of Ohio and US. It's hard to have a conversation with someone unless you're talking about sports. All in all, the pros listed above are all true, and is a good place to live.
Love the videos! Thanks. Just found out I'm transferring to the Cincinnati airport area from Yuma, Az sometime in the next 6 months. Your videos have been giving me a good idea of what what we are in for. Looks like it will be a great place for my 8yo to grow up.
You're welcome! Glad to hear they are helpful. Let me know if you need anything for your move.
The "Cincinnati" airport is in Kentucky
I’m moving to AZ from NC soon!
The greater Cincinnati airport is in Kentucky. Kentucky got a little pissed off at that so the name is now the greater Cincinnati and northern Kentucky airport.
Suburbs are super safe around cinci. There’s a little bit of everything too
My husband and I are contemplating moving to Cincinnati …. We have a pet domesticated mini goat (she really is quieter/behaved better than most dogs) and have read that there is no ordinance against having goats as backyard pets…. Do you know where I could find more information on that?
Easiest way would be to call the zoning departments of the areas you would consider. I do have some friends with goats. 🐐
If you move anywhere in the Western half of Boone County you won't encounter any goat issues, same for Southern Kenton/Campbell.
Went to school at UC. Lived here 5 years.
Pros: lots and lots of bars
Cons: I've seen so many shootings I don't remember them all. And I'm not talking on the news
did you ever feel unsafe?
@@alexrichmond7222 it's contained in the bad areas where you'd have no business to go into. The rest of it and the suburbs are fine.
I grew up in Cincinnati, I left in 2012 to move to Seattle where my brother was living, and he convinced me to move. Seattle is great but it's no Cincinnati. I was 41 when I moved so Cincinnati is a part of my genetic makeup. The one thing I always tell people, who after finding out I lived in Cincinnati (and once they stop singing the WKRP theme song) is what was the best part about it. I would say that it was a mid-sized city with big city amenities. It's great, because it's not too big, but we are not left behind when it comes to the latest and greatest things a big city usually has. We are like a big city that wasn't full of itself in a sense. The people are great, always will be. It's beautiful, the river is great and my trips to Newport and Convington were great as well. The Bengals did make it to the playoffs in the 2000's but the QB got sacked/injured early on. We had high hopes, but the fill-in QB wasn't as seasoned as he could have been. I am not a huge sports fan, but I do enjoy going to games, but I'd be lying if I were to say I knew all the names :) I did sort of at the time though. After I moved, they started getting better, and like you said they made the playoffs like five years in a row. Seattle is a huge sports town, in the same vein as Cincinnati. They are diehards and sometimes it's tough being a fan here as well. Though they did go to back-to-back Superbowls when I first moved here (or around then). I always say that when Seattle plays, I root for them UNLESS they are playing Cincy. However, if Cincy loses, then I am not as heartbroken as I would have been when I was living in Cincy. It's kind of like my team didn't win but my second team did, if that makes sense. So, it takes some of the sting out of things. You forgot to tell everyone that we put the chili on spaghetti. Everyone thinks I am mad until they taste it. Until Amazon Fresh started carrying Skyline Chili, I had to make do with Hormel. Not the same, but kind of made it less unbearable. Also, I remember in grade school, and we would all love it when we got chili spaghetti for lunch. Though it was a bit crazy hearing a bunch of fourth and fifth graders getting excited about a three way. lol. It's like "awesome, we're having a three way today!!" Oh, to be young and innocent again :) I do miss the main Public Library location. I used to do a lot of writing there and I did a lot of reading/researching things just for fun. I learned a lot about history and old Hollywood and old Comic strips that way. Cincinnati had so many options and so many activities you could do even if you were broke (which is how I grew up). I lived in Over-the-Rhine back in the 70s until about 94 then moved to College Hill and then off to Colerain Twnshp. So many great memories. And going to Sawyer Point and walking along the Serpentine Wall are memories I will always cheris.
Watching from Nepal..lovely video

I totally agree that it is the last cool place that is affordable. It reminds me of Portland, Oregon at the Turn of the Century. Tons of DIY arts scene, wish more national bands came through, but there is great bands in Cinci. West Price Hill doesn't get enough love, I had the best tacos I have had outside of San Antonio there. As someone from Philadelphia, your public transit is not that bad. Actually I was impressed. While it is mostly busses they show up on time. You can find out to the minute when the next bus is going to show up (something SEPTA sadly lacks). I wish they ran at least one bus after closing time at least from the Northside to Downtown it would make it much easier to attend shows.
I live in West Price Hill. Where did you get your tacos? Have you tried Tacos Time yet?
A con for me about the weather in Cincinnati, is you can literally never tell what the weather will be because it changes every minute and does some drastic things, lol
Good video! Live in central KY and always enjoy visiting Cincy. Plenty to do and not over crowded like other cities
There's a reason so many people move to Cincinnati (regular joe's and retired major leaguers/pro athletes) that continue to make Cincinnati their home. Best city I ever lived in. Love the small town charm.
Agreed, would like to live there as well
Thank you!
Pros: Drug Boys shooting craps on the 13th & Walnut. Cons: District One Police just riding out the clock to get their pension.
one of the 13 cities in the country to have a ballet, fine arts, opera, symphony, and theater companies.
City leadership is great, at least the ones not in prison or under Federal indictment.
🤣
We just moved to Cincinnati from Sacramento CA. It rains so much here. I wish it would stop so I could go ride my bike on the Loveland bike trail!! Love that trail!
The Loveland bike trail is amazing. :)
Horrible weather besides summer. Alot of racism trump supporter. Avoid both states everybody backward here.
💯
The best city in ohio is Columbus Cincinnati and Cleveland are alot alike great city's
Best Pro IMO is the cost of living here. I'm able to visit any city i want due to the affordable housing here. CON weather just sucks in general. but doesn't sound like coastal living is all that great anymore.
Cincinnati Zoo is one of the best zoos's.
Absolutely!
For tennis fans, you get to see the top tennis players in August during the Western & Southern Open. It is a wonderful tournament.
Amazing event if you like tennis. All the pros in a laid back atmosphere (which is a big reason they love it and all come).
Hello Eric, I live down here in The Beautiful State of Louisiana but I've Always been a Huge Cincinnati BENGALS Fan and also that name Cincinnati it sounds Italian or even maybe a bit Greek. My question to you Eric is as a Big Admirer of The City as a whole that name what is the origin of this very different spelled and sounding name. Please talk about that original and unique and pretty name at least for me anyway. And GO BENGALS!!! Who DEY from Louisiana Bengals Fan. 🐯👍
All that and not 1 mention of the number 1 zoo in the nation.!
Great point. Love the zoo. It's incredible! The membership is amazing if you have young kids.
another great thing is in northern Kentucky and mostly Covington there's a big football and cheer community for children. I grew up in Covington and did cheer for years and met a bunch of amazing people and we always had a lot of fun especially with the Tiger Bowl (it's basically like the super bowl but with every age group) and rain or shine we play and cheer and the football and cheer community actually help the community a lot with different things either being fundraising for the homeless or at risk people or community service and volunteering to help different people. it also helps single parents be able to work later because it's after school and no matter your situation the parents and organizers are willing to help you out weather it be you need someone to pick your kid up from school to get them to practice or you can't afford to buy new cleats and they either have an old or extra pear that your kid can have
Thanks for sharing!
It’s too cold and gray for me I’m probably going to move somewhere else. Allergies also get really bad during the spring.
I’m also a Steelers fan so life kind of sucks right now
I've lived in Cincinnati my whole life and would never want to live anywhere else. Our city is rich in history, chalk full of things to do, and is so so beautiful!
Moving to Cincinnati in this august✌️
Hit me up if you need anything. eric.sztanyo@kw.com

We have lots of honest good people in Kentucky Indiana Ohio. One Christmas I went To Florence mall spent two hundred and forgot my bag in the bathroom went all the way home call them backup and someone turned it in unbelievable good honest hard working people.🍻🍻🍻
Do not forget the VA (#4 in the USA) Best hospital for veterans
Bengals reversed!!!!!
Pros: East Side Cons: West Side.
If we're talkin Eastgate vs Delhi I'd say it might be a tie😂
Lol. It's reversed if you're from the westside I heard.
NOT EVEN. I've been stuck in the near east side for 6 yrs, & got shot at last week! That NEVER happened to me on the west side!
@@Dark_Harmony All the Cincinnati killings happen west of 75...for the most part. There are some central shit holes like Norwood where everyone is white but thinks they're "of color."
@@katwilliams2950 Stats don't lie. Good chili on the west side though so it's worth dodging bullets.
I'm moving there by the end of the year! I'm excited to see the city!
I go to Cincinnati once a year to go to Cincinnati childrens hospital it is the best hospital for my cundeshin, I always wanted to live in Cincinnati
Now THAT is a pro I can agree with. I was a frequent flyer as a kid, then passed the torch to my younger daughter. When she was 16, she was playing blindfolded Marco Polo and ran fast as she could into a tree. I took her to Children's- again. 5 serious looking docs had her in a huge neck brace. She had a couple cuts on her face and one side was swelling up. They were asking her questions like did she hit the windshield? And she would just give them a confused look. Finally, one of the docs asked was she wearing a seat belt. Finally she's like "oh I wasn't driving. I actually RAN into a tree." I saw the smirks as they started looking at each other over her mangled body. Three of them dramatically turned away, snatching off their gloves, shaking their heads. 🤣 On the way out, one came back and said "I knew I've seen you before. Listen, when you feel the urge to say to your friends "hey! Watch this!"- DON'T DO IT!!! Wise words.
@@poutinedream5066 weird questions do you remember the doctors name that did the dramatic leave. You don't know to answer just curious
Shriners too. They fly people in from all over for burn treatment. One of the best in the country.
@@MariaGutierrez-vf5vq I never got her name. I do recall, she was a white woman, I'd say in her 30s, and this was about 4 years ago. Beyond being basically pleasant looking, it seems she was neither very tall nor very short, very heavy nor very thin. I don't recall noticing any definite descriptors.
@@poutinedream5066 that's okay.
