Great video, thanks for sharing. My wife and I were there recently and we enjoyed our experience there. I've been to the top of the Carew tower a long time ago and was really windy when I was there!!!!!
Great tour of Cincinnati! I would be a little nervous at the top of Karew tower- was making me nervous watching it on here, lol. I have never been downtown Cinny but have been in the outskirts (Kings Island). Great video.
Thanks for watching! I thought the view from the top was amazing, but then again, I am not afraid of heights. I haven't been to Kings Island, but I know some friends of mine have gone there.
I’m Cincinnati born and raised. The suburbs are absolutely dreadful. Literally nothing to do and 30 minute drive to get anywhere. Downtown/OTR/Uptown are the best things about Cincinnati. It’s where our history is and where all the best food and entertainment is.
"Cincinnati" in honor of the Society of the Cincinnati, made up of Revolutionary War veterans, of which he was a member; which was in turn named for Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus, a dictator in the early Roman Republic who saved Rome from a crisis, and then retired to farming because he didn't want to remain in power !
This may sound odd but I have no car or license at the moment. I am working on getting it. Is this an area where I can get a job and easily go to work provided it's close. Still take care of bear neccities and Uber the rest? Or do I definitely need a car?
@@datingfighter314 There are absolutely areas with 1 bedroom apartments and also a job available in the city. The rent around Cincy is lower than most other large cities but rising every year and depends on the county you are in. Places like Hyde park, Clifton, Westwood/Cheviot, Deer park, & OTR is awesome but on the upper end of these for finances. These areas are all very walkable for jobs. But look this up for yourself as Thats my opinion! Uber is highly available and easy in the city or in these places I listed above. When you get to smaller counties such as Wilmington, Fairfield, etc, Ubers will take longer to come by but 3/7 days pretty much guaranteed. I wish you the best of luck!!
I'm curious to know what Cincinnati is like......the people, the food scene, the character of the city, etc. Does it have good public transit? Is downtown walk-able?
I felt that the downtown area was quite walk-able. The city also has a bus system as well as a streetcar which runs in a loop from downtown up to the area near Findlay Market. Cincinnati also has a lot of great food options from Findlay Market to the famous Cincinnati Chili at restaurant chains such as Skyline Chili. I was only in the city for a few hours, but it felt quite nice!
Dirty, high crime, very corrupt police and government. Busses are ok if you are downtown but outside of downtown they are unreliable (late all the time or sometimes don't show up or other unprofessional behavior). The character of the city can best be described as "ghetto". The food is the best part since there's all kinds of good food- both in terms of restaurants and also what you can buy at the grocery store or market. You are a lot better off visiting the kentucky side- Newport for instance. It's less ghetto, less crime ridden on the kentucky side, corruption is slightly less. The entire city has moved south over the years. in the 1950s the kentucky side was farm and Ohio side city. Now most of the businesses, factories etc. have moved to kentucky where the undesirable ghetto people largely stayed in the northern side. If you want to see someone over dosing from heroine in the street or have your car broken into Cincinnati gives you about the highest chances in the nation for that. Or if you are white and walk down the wrong street and get attacked because of your race- those are the kind of "unique" experiences I have had enough though and really don't want to ever go back.
@NorthTrEndz_CLE all Ohio cities suck. Any place is nice if you got a lot of money but for regular working people it's all ghetto in Ohio. One good thing is at least the rent is cheap.
@@raymondkidwell7135 actually, since the early 2000’s, all the big developments have been on the Ohio side. Omni are moved from Covington to Cinnati, and Ashland moved from Covington to Delaware. Toyota moved from Erlanger to Dallas. The Covington riverboats are no more and Newport on the Levee has continually tried to reinvent itself. In the meantime, Cincinnati built a new football stadium, a baseball stadium, a new soccer stadium. The wonderful Underground Railroad Museum was built on the riverfront, as was the Reds Hall of Fame. GE opened on the banks, as did expanded parks, restaurants and apartments. OTR saw a new Shakespeare Theater, renovated Music Hall, a new Art Academy, a new School for the Creative and Performing Arts. The neighborhood is loaded with awesome restaurants, shops and breweries. There are now $1m townhomes there. Even Emilio Estevez owns in OTR. Some ghetto. Is Downtown walkable? Absolutely. Or you can take the free streetcar from the stadiums to OTR. Or rent a bike from on of the stands downtown. Raymond Kidwell is a cantankerous, I’ll-informed dope
@@SL-vy8ue Yes for as long as I can remember endless millions and billions of dollars poured into Cincinnati in affirmative action programs for blacks and also renovation programs to de-ghettofiy it. The improvements have been mild and not worth the enormous expense. All the stadiums are paid for with sales tax hikes. They built million dollar condos and people were getting mugged and robbed because the ghetto is right around the corner so they weren't able to sell or rent most of the expensive places they built. So they just pour more and more money into it. They have endless piles of money to send overseas or for these renovations of the ghetto but when some regular working person like me needs help they can't spare ten cents. In fact they stole my unemployment and stole welfare benefits that I qualified for when I needed it. So let me rephrase it- the businesses and homes not funded by the government, not part of a welfare program or renovation program but actually private citizens or companies primarily is moving to the Kentucky side or other places out of state. Some of them move out of the country. I have steadily watched the factories and jobs move out of Cincinnati during my lifetime as well as the middle class apartments and homes turn into lower class ghetto areas. Like a typical third world country they do have an extremely rich upper class to go along with the extremely poor people that live there, but there's just a lack of people in the middle. Those people have mostly moved out due to the extreme favoritism towards dysfunctional and disabled people and the extreme racism against white people.
I have lived in Cincinnati Ohio all of my life and no it is not perfect we do have problems like City Hall corruption but that's life no city is perfect. My main beef is the weather. WE are in a State and City that has weather extremes. Tornado Alley is here. The winters can be Brutal like in 1977 when the Ohio River froze when it got down to minus 25 and in 1978 25 inches of snow. But as far as crime goes it is not as bad as others. Lots of Civic pride and love of sports here.
Coriden Cain It’s absolutely horrible how disconnected the city is. Unfortunately infrastructure is something has consistently failed at. If I ever move it will be because of this.
Poor guy it looks like he is so terrified of screwing up a single word or big bad Mommy's going to knock the crap out of him! JUST breathe Scotty... Take a big, deep, breath and just go with the flow. Look around describe what you see... And describe to us what you do know... and if you don't, then read from a paper. But it just looks like you are so so terribly uncomfortable and I just feel so bad I can't even finish the video I'm only one minute and 16 seconds in and I have to go. I feel as if you're looking at me telling me this stuff in your so nervous I just really appreciate the video though
That is very good advice! Although I have been filming videos for a while, I can get a little nervous in front of the camera especially when other people are around. For the first few years, I never even showed myself on camera. I also do have a stammer at times, but I am definitely trying to improve overall as I film more videos. I need to learn not to worry if other people are giving me strange looks as I talk to the camera.
@@scottman895 awww u r so nice. I feel bad with my criticism scott. But i swear if ull have me ill give u the honest brutal truth whenever u want it! 💁💚
The level of crime, pollution, poverty and corruption in Cincinnati is so mind blowing that a normal person just can't wrap their head around it. It's like when you see something so f---d up and you are like "nah that can't be real" Cognitive dissonance. The place looks pretty approaching it on I-75 from kentucky or the river front area looks nice that's about it.
Cincinnati is one of the most corrupt cities in America. The skyline is beautiful though. Racial tension is through the roof. Does have professional sports. Dirty police officers. Suburbs of Cincinnati is okay. Very little nightlife Sunday through Thursday, city shuts down around 9, unless theirs a Bengals game. The entire city smells like rotten feet during the summer. Do not recommend moving their, unless you have a very high paying job. Again the suburbs are livable.
I have Amelia police on video committing a felony crime of concealing evidence. I report this to the Sheriff, Attorney General etc. all they do is lie to me. I watched UDF get robbed about once a month and the US bank across from it robbed about once a month from my apartment window. Cops usually sitting there watch it happen and let the guy get away then write up a false report about it. It's not normal to get robbed 12 times a year and the guy never get caught- c'mon. Every time I tried to file a police report the police never made a report, but police did brag about assaulting people and said racist things to me. Got really screwed by Cincinnati State- I just needed one class to graduate and they wouldn't let me take it saying they hate white males. I find out zero men ever graduated and other racism and sexism- all clearly documented. Report it to the school, Department of Education, Department of Justice Civil Rights- I just get laughed at. I vowed to myself to never step foot in Ohio again if I can help it. Oh yea and they ripped me off for thousands of dollars of unemployment I was supposed to get but never did. Went to the welfare office downtown cincinnati- used my social to get a gas card I qualified for. The guy there put it in his pocket- the people working at the welfare office actually steal people's benefits- usually the white people. I report this and the police and FBI really don't care. Literally there are defrauding the federal government out of millions of dollars through welfare fraud and fraud at the colleges. Apparently nobody in the federal government cares. On and on it goes. Yes these problems exist all across America. Its corrupt everywhere. But in Ohio it's on a whole other level- like literally nobody cares about murders, rapes, massive fraud etc. and if you do care you'll probably end up moving out of the place. It's literally like being in a third world country. Suburbs are often corrupt and bad as well. Only some of the really expensive areas- those are the only decent areas. But you are still dealing with the corrupt Ohio government no matter where you are in the state. Even UC a lot of unprofessional and illegal stuff going on there. You have to be rich and well connected to live a decent life or to be taken seriously by anybody- which is exactly the same as third world country.
just got back from Cincinnati today and just have to say... my GOD that city is fucked. Really weird & sketchy.. Preferred Columbus waaaaay more. Side note: Did anyone else notice that for such a large metropolitan city the streets and sidewalks everywhere are virtually EMPTY?
Whaaat? Where did you even go lol 😆 the city is still beautiful and a year ago when your comment was posted was during a pandemic so that’s probably where the people were, home 😅
Just visited Cincinnati for the first time over Memorial Day weekend and had a great time. Planning another trip soon. 😊
That's great to hear! I'm glad you had a great time!
Come back in the summer when Cincinnati is one of the most beautiful cities in the country !
I'll definitely have to head back there sometime. I'll try to make it there when it is warmer like the summer. Thanks for watching!
I would love to retire there someday. I am in Austin Texas and would love to get out.
Nice! Cincinnati is a pretty nice city.
Great video, thanks for sharing. My wife and I were there recently and we enjoyed our experience there.
I've been to the top of the Carew tower a long time ago and was really windy when I was there!!!!!
That is great to hear! I really enjoyed the views from the top of Carew Tower. Thanks for watching!
This is awesome ! I wanted to know what Cincinnati was like so I'm glad I found this one !
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Considering suburbs and surrounding areas , cincinnati is the largest city in Ohio, and the 28 largest in the U.S.
Michael Johnson no it’s not colobus is and then Cleveland and then Cincinnati
It’s the largest metro area in Ohio but the third largest city.
Enki_of_Erie Cleveland’s metro is 2 million while Cincinnati’s is 2.1 million and growing at a faster rate.(soon it will include Dayton)
Yea it is
thanks for the guided tour Scott soon a french guy in Cincinnati can be
Thank you very much! I hope you enjoy Cincinnati when you get a chance to go!
Thanks for the Vlog! We are going next week
You're welcome! Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy Cincinnati!
I like Cincinnati.
Same here. I enjoyed visiting the city!
Very cool
I’m not a fan of Ohio but Cincinnati is a very underrated city.
Cincinnati is really cool! I would love to get back down there someday.
My grandmother used to work in the Crew tower building
That's awesome!
Cincy reminds me if detroit mixed with Pittsburgh. Did you go to the river?
Try Mason, Ohio! It has Kings Island, Great Wolf Lodge, Western and Southern open, and the Beach waterpark! It is very ncie!
Thanks for sharing! I'll have to check that out sometime!

I think you meant the Carew Tower
Haha the first three photos I was like where the hell in Cincinnati are these beautiful hidden spectacles?!
Lol, that was just my intro I was using that year. I stopped using that intro for most videos I filmed in recent months.
My favorite stations out of Cincinnati WKRP, lol
Haha! I need to watch that show someday!
I live in cincinnati and born here there was never a WKRP IN CINCINNATI WAS ONLY FOR THE SHOW.
I live in Cincinnati so I just like to stick around the suburban areas of the city but Downtown is okay.
I may always consider visiting some of the Cincinnati suburbs someday!
I’m Cincinnati born and raised. The suburbs are absolutely dreadful. Literally nothing to do and 30 minute drive to get anywhere. Downtown/OTR/Uptown are the best things about Cincinnati. It’s where our history is and where all the best food and entertainment is.
My home town
Looks like a great city! Thanks for sharing and taking the time to do it mate! 😀
Cincinnati was quite nice! Thanks for watching!
It's not that good tbh (A cincy resident)
I love Cininnati
Ohio is awesome. I love the cows on farm lands.
That is really cool!
Great video thx
Thanks for watching!
Glad you corrected the Reds history....they are THE OLDEST team.

Very interesting history indeed!
Named because George Washington was called the American Cinncinatus because he was offered to be President for life but turned it down
You should visit the museum of natural history and the art museum
For sure! I'll have to check those out on a future visit!
I live in cincy!
Me too

I use too watch people jump off that bridge when I was a kid, down in the bottoms next to Mose's café!
What American city woud be good to go for shooting lessons?
I live in Kentucky but come to Cincinnati a lot. Mostly for Bengals games. I think it's a very pretty city.
I was quite impressed with the city with it being my first visit there. I'm sure it is awesome going there to watch a game!
Lot of fun. Plus, plenty to do before and after the games.
