Cincinnati looks like New Yorks brother that went down to Kentucky and settled down.

A lot of Cincinnati is just a medium version of New York. The Roebling Bridge was the precursor to the Brooklyn Bridge, and Carew Tower is basically the younger sibling of Rockefeller Center.

I highly recommend the Covington-Newport-Bellvue area in Northern Kentucky as another historical urbanist area

Good call!

Moved to Cincinnati from Florida in 2015, bought a fantastic old house on the west side. Unbelievable architecture, and there are all these catwalks around the neighborhood. The houses are huge very well maintained with stained glass, crystal, carved wood and Rookwood fireplaces. This is considered by some a higher crime are , but honestly compared to Florida it's a joke. I think Cincinnati just keeps better statistics and all the crime gets reported where we from other places just ignore it as expected. I found the contractors i hired here to be far more honest than any I used building my Florida home and the people more honest in general. This is a good town. Oh , they also take littering and graffiti as a serious crime! (I think this is great as the city is much cleaner looking)

You do a great job covering different cities. Thank you. Cincinnati is indeed a beautiful city with wonderful architecture, culture, sports and a great urban vibe.

Best city in Ohio hands down!

Shinji pfp fr, anyways, yeah, I love both Cincinnati and Cleveland, but I definitely prefer Cincinnati and actually feel safe here compared to other major cities fr.

Cincy is an underrated city, spent a wild weekend five years ago where I caught two concerts (one in Over the Rhine which was lit on a Saturday night) and got around carless while staying across the river in Newport (mostly by a shuttle bus). They have quite a few pedestrian bridges but transit is a bit shortcoming and lack of rail service to the airport (which isn't close) is defintiely a downside!

Haha nice! I’m not surprised OTR was litty even five years ago. Sounds like you need to plan a trip back.

I've lived in Cincinnati for 27 years... left 10 years ago. .and the fact he said over-the-rhine is one of the best places to live absolutely blows my mind... that was a place you never go to even in the day time.... unless you know ppl there and that was even iffy...

The streetcar would be better if it connected to UC and across the river into Kentucky. Also, there is a lot of commuter traffic between Dayton and Cincinnati and it would be nice to have commuter rail in SW Ohio

Please do one on Minnesota twin cities!

Walking, running, bicycles, escooters, green open spaces, electric buses, commuter trains and trams are all parts of a good transportation system. Speak up for improved transportation options in your city. Every train station needs safe, protected places to park and lock bicycles.

Cincy is not on the prairie 😆. I'm glad you like it but I think you need to look up what a prairie is and where its located. Cincy is part of the Eastern hardwood forest of the US, and is technically the northernmost border of what is considered the "Bluegrass" region.

Also crime. It is amazing how a video made eleven months ago pictures a good place. Stats today show much different story.

You are a little confused about Clifton. The actual neighborhood of Clifton is predominantly north of Ludlow Ave. far up to the northwest of the U.C. campus. It is very different from Clifton Heights or CUF. The area east of campus is another neighborhood called Corryville. Clifton proper is a rather upmarket neighborhood and contains numerous old mansions as well as Mt. Storm Park. The Ludlow Ave. business district is the heart of Clifton and is very walkable.

That is correct but only locals know this. A lot of people will refer to Clifton Heights, University Heights, Fairview, and even Corryville all as "Clifton".

Seems like a great city without being too big and impersonal. I love those neighborhoods and affordable prices! As a New Yorker, I really appreciate the fact that you have some room to breathe in that town. Great video!

They should extend the streetcar the extra mile up to the university area, CPU.

350 for a 2BR in Cincinnati. Looks nice, but I don't know, with the price of that housing......!

Oktoberfest Zinzinnati is not in OTR

Clifton Heights Is Where Hughes High School Is, University Heights Is Where University Hospital Is & Fairview Is Where Fairview Park Is. 💯 That's CUF. Clifton Heights, University Heights & Fairview. 💯

St. Louis is also really hilly.

Electric bicycles are bringing many older adults back to cycling. Ebikes makes those hills much less of an issue.. Every city needs to beaa bicycle city. We all need to support healthy exercise and fossil fuels free transportation options. Add a little more green space, bike lanes and outdoor dining to the city and it is a winner.
